Budhanilkantha School, situated in the breathtaking panorama of the capital, Kathmandu, is the government designated ‘National School’ of Nepal. It is a fully residential English medium co-educational public school that runs from grade 5 to 12, including the Advanced Level of Cambridge University, UK. A joint venture effort between the government of Nepal and the government of the United Kingdom, the school was established in 1972 with the sole aim of imparting quality education for “rich and poor alike” in an environment that fosters unity and equality. In the first two decades of its operation, the school was managed by a succession of British head-masters who did an excellent job of establishing and shaping the school into a centre of excellence.
