About

DAYANANDA ARYA VIDYA PUBLIC SCHOOL (DAV)

Welcome to DAV Public School, Kanakapura Road, Bangalore, where education meets holistic development in a nurturing environment. Rooted in the towering principles and philosophy of the noble son of India, Maharshi Dayananda Saraswati, we strive to cultivate a love for learning while instilling universal Vedic values and the rich Indian cultural ethos in every student. Our school life is enriched with diverse activities and programs that extend beyond academics, fostering overall growth and character building.

Under the sheltering guidance of the Om Shantidhama Trust, DAV Public School operates in seamless conjunction with a Veda Gurukula, ensuring our commitment to integrated, value-based learning. This foundation empowers us as a culture-based school, deliberately shaping students into pioneering global citizens who embody the majestic traditions and enduring values of Sanatana. Esteemed as a premier CBSE institution, we are well known in the community we stand in, as not just a school, but an academy enabling righteous human beings to flourish. Thus we stand by our mother motto, Manurbhava – be human.

Principal's Message at DAV

Shreyanshi Paul

"Education is the manifestation of perfection already in man"
-Swami Vivekananda

Our school carries forward a simple conviction that Swami Dayananda Saraswati held dear: true education is not the accumulation of information, but the shaping of character. A child who reads well, reasons clearly and speaks with clarity and conviction is the finest result any school can offer. Every decision we take here is measured against that ideal.

In our classrooms you will find children asking questions, working with their hands, arguing about a story, discussing the vedas, measuring the playground, and learning to listen to one another. We follow the National Education Policy 2020 in spirit and not merely in form. Assessment with us is continuous and holistic: through the Holistic Progress Card we record how a child thinks, creates, collaborates and grows, rather than reducing a year of effort to a single mark. A child’s curiosity, kindness and perseverance deserve to be noticed as much as her marks in Mathematics.

Alongside academics, we give real time and dignity to the arts, to sports and physical wellbeing, to our languages, and to the values of Indian culture. Our teachers are the heart of this work, and they are learners themselves – reflective, well-prepared and warmly available to every child.

A school, however, can only do half the work. The other half belongs to you. We invite parents to walk with us – to read with your child, to attend our meetings, to tell us what you observe at home. Together we can raise young people who are capable, confident and compassionate.

Our Vision for a Better Tomorrow

To nurture a generation of learners who uphold Indian ideals, embrace global perspectives, and lead with courage, empathy, and wisdom.
Our vision to shape learners who respect Indian values while remaining open to global ideas and experiences. We aspire to build a school environment where courage, empathy, and wisdom become guiding principles. By supporting students grow into thoughtful and confident individuals, we hope to empower them to take on leadership roles in the future. This vision inspires us to create a community that honours tradition, welcomes progress, and constantly strives for excellence.

Dedicated to Excellence in Higher Learning

“To inspire every student to engage with curiosity and compassion, mastering core academics and life-skills, while embracing the richness of Indian tradition and the challenges of a changing world.”
Our mission emphasises nurturing curiosity, compassion, and a genuine interest in learning in every student.

With Indian culture at the heart of our approach, we encourage independent thinking, responsible behaviour, and holistic growth. Through this mission, we aim for the students to meet the challenges of a fast-changing world with confidence and integrity.
