Principal's Message

The role of DHA Education System is not only to stalk the academic quality but also to develop the learning attitude of students to be the learners of 21st century, critical thinkers and giving hands for a developing society. We put untiring efforts to make them citizens, the ones who are always ready to serve their nation. We believe in an academic atmosphere based on the amalgam of scholastic and co-scholastic activities.

Getting children into school is one thing, educating them is quite another. The former may be easier but the latter is quite daunting nowadays. These are sensitive times and maintaining a balance between quality education and character building is no easy feat. We, at DHA Senior School & College put in our best to do exactly that. We believe that the role of a school is not only to enable academic excellence, but character building, instilling high moral values, development of wholesome personality and awareness of societal obligations are central to what we offer here. It is a learning community that seeks success for each student as we strive to deepen our core values of unshakeable faith, belief in hard work, achievements through honest and fair means and facing challenges boldly.

We are committed to identify unfinished learning and leveraging ingenuity, innovation, and resources to create equitable and equal opportunities for our students.  Additionally, we continue to endeavour to help every child to actualize his potential.

I would like the parents to know that my door is always open to discuss any concerns, questions, or ideas you may have regarding your child’s education. I welcome you all to an outstanding learning community where everyone is dedicated to a high standard of excellence.
