Vision

Our vision is to be a leading international school in Bangladesh that sets the standard for excellence in education, fostering a community of learners who are committed to making a positive impact on the world. We aim to inspire our students to become lifelong learners, critical thinkers, and problem solvers who are equipped to face the challenges of a rapidly changing global society.

Mission

At The New School Dhaka, our mission is to provide a dynamic and inclusive learning environment that prepares Bangladeshi children for success in a rapidly changing global society. We strive to cultivate critical thinkers, problem solvers, and engaged citizens who are equipped to make positive contributions to their communities and the world.

Our curriculum is designed to provide students with both national and international perspectives, drawing on the best practices from around the world while also celebrating the unique cultural heritage of Bangladesh. We believe that a well-rounded education should not only focus on academic excellence but also on developing social and emotional skills, character, and values. Our goal is to nurture students who are confident, compassionate, and committed to making a difference.

Philosophy

We believe an excellent education engages the natural developmental stage of each child: the preschool students joy of discovery the junior school and middle school students exuberant dynamic growth; the high school students emerging sense of purpose. Throughout their school experience, young people encounter opportunities to question, to reason, to express themselves, to discover and pursue a passion, to risk, and sometimes even to fail and to learn from that failure. Through a wide range of outstanding programmes, NSD students grow as healthy, balanced individuals and cultivate personal strengths as scholars, artists, athletes, leaders, and community servants. Through their classroom and extracurricular activities and a multitude of social interactions, they discover that knowledge about the world and their own character should be inseparable, and that knowing how to learn is as important as what one learns. A clear understanding of ones self contributes to responsible citizenship, whether that involves treating each other nicely on the playground, or respecting our mutual interdependence in a world of many races, creeds, and political views.
