Founder President’s Message

The main purpose of imparting education at our basic, primary and secondary education is to develop the integrated personality of a child. It means that along with the academics the child requires the physical and total intellectual developments. Marshall School in Dehra Dun aims at promoting the public personality, sportsmanship along with the academics.

Twenty-ninth Olympics in Peking has reiterated it once again.India’s poor show has exposed the fact that as regards the physical development of a child and youth, we have no policy. We lack national effort in this direction. We have to formulate and intensify our physical education and national health in this respect.

We are happy that in Marshall School the education is being imparted in this direction.
