Doon International Education Society was established by Mr. D. S. Mann, the Founding Chairman, in the year 1993 with a vision to provide affordable quality education. Mrs. M. K. Mann took it upon herself to give practical shape to this herculean task by heading Doon International School, Dehra Dun as its Founding Principal.
The school was started from 'Pari Mahal' in Dalanwala, Dehra Dun in the year 1993. By dint of their professionalism and unstinted efforts, the school was able to realise a student strength of 500 in its very first year of operations.
Today that seedling planted by The Founders has grown to become a renowned educational institution of the country. Doon International School today is a name to reckon with as one of the top Day and Boarding schools in India, and has constantly been ranked the #1 CBSE Co-Educational, Day and Residential School in Uttarakhand (source – Educational World). This success was followed by setting up three more prestigious branches of Doon International School at Mohali, Punjab in the year 2004, at Pondha, Dehradun in the year 2015, and at New Chandigarh in the year 2021.
