Overview
Dapcha Secondary School, Namobuddha-08, Daraunepokhari, Kavrepalanchok, Bagmati Province
Dapcha Secondary School has been part of daily life in this community since 1986 B.S (1929 AD). It’s not just a place where children come to study—it’s where they’re seen, supported, and encouraged to grow in their way.
Ask anyone around Daraunepokhari, and chances are they’ll know someone who studied here. Some of today’s parents were once students walking through the same school gate. That’s the kind of place Dapcha is—quietly steady, woven into the lives of families, year after year.
The school teaches students from Grade 1 to 10, and while the building may be simple, what happens inside truly matters. Lessons are practical. Teachers are approachable. Children learn not just from books, but also from real-life experiences—whether it’s through experiments in the science lab, participating in local events, or helping out in the school garden.
Over time, the school has expanded beyond just classrooms. It now has a computer lab, a children’s garden, safer buildings, and a growing list of activities that bring learning to life. Parents are often invited to workshops, and teachers even visit homes when needed, because here, education is something shared, not just delivered.
At its heart, Dapcha Secondary School believes that every child deserves the chance to do well—and that growth doesn’t always happen fast, but it’s always worth the wait. This is a school that listens, adapts, and keeps showing up for its students, no matter what.
