The Doon School 22.10.2010

The Doon School (informally Doon) is a boys-only independent boarding school in Dehradun, Uttarakhand, India. It was founded in 1935 by Satish Ranjan Das, a Kolkata lawyer. He prevised a school modelled on the British public school, but alive to Indian ambitions and desires. The school's first headmaster was an Englishman, Arthur E. Foot, who had spent nine years as a science master at Eton College, England before coming to Doon, and returned to England right after India's independence. 
The present headmaster is Peter McLaughlin, who has occupied the post since 2009 and is the ninth headmaster of the school. He is a member of Headmasters' and Headmistresses' Conference.
