Sri KDU Schools understand that our teachers are the most important resource we have to afford our students a first-rate academic and holistic international education.
We believe that education is about enrichment, not only of the individual but of the communities within which those individuals live and therefore of society in general. Sri KDU Schools aim to provide an education of the highest possible standard for each of its students in key areas of development. The most important of these are the academic, cultural, moral and co-curricular.
We have high expectations of our students in terms of their effort, achievements and behavior and we aim to provide them with by which they can develop to the best of their abilities their knowledge, skills and personality. By so doing we seek to develop confident, well-rounded individuals who can be successful in their own lives and of service to others. It is the quality of the people and the relationships between them that make our schools special. Our view of education is based on mutual respect, trust, pastoral care and a positive outlook.
