A calm, premium home for serious learning
Dunes Academy is a co-educational, CBSE-affiliated residential school in Phalodi, Rajasthan — built on a simple conviction: children deserve a school that does not ask them to choose between academic rigour and the warmth of a nurturing home.
Rooted in Rajasthan, Built for Focus
Dunes Academy was founded on 1 July 2014 in Tehsil Aau, Phalodi District — a serene, pollution-free setting chosen deliberately for the calm and clarity it offers young minds. Over more than a decade, the school has grown into a trusted residential institution serving students from Nursery through Class XII, with every decision shaped by a single question we return to again and again: what is best for this child?
The rural tranquility of Aau gives students something increasingly rare — genuine space to concentrate. Away from city noise and constant distraction, the campus pairs modern academic infrastructure with a secure, supervised residential environment, so that academic focus and personal reflection can grow side by side, day after day.
Our Vision
To be a centre of transformative education in Rajasthan — where students discover their strengths, build unshakeable confidence, and are prepared to contribute meaningfully to the world around them.
Our Mission
To provide a structured, caring residential learning environment where students are encouraged to explore ideas, develop strong values, and acquire the knowledge and skills needed for lifelong success — guided by experienced and dedicated teachers.
“What is best for this child?” — The question behind every decision at Dunes Academy

Respect
Every student is seen, heard, and valued — irrespective of background or ability.

A campus designed for every dimension of growth
Academic learning, creative development, and physical fitness are treated as equally important at Dunes Academy, every single day. Spacious classrooms, well-equipped laboratories, a stocked library, and dedicated sports and arts facilities all sit within a secure, supervised campus — infrastructure built for the whole child, not the timetable alone.
Dunes Academy is affiliated with the Central Board of Secondary Education, Affiliation No. 1731202, offering a structured curriculum from Nursery through Class XII, with Science and Commerce streams at the senior secondary level. Parents who choose Dunes Academy choose peace of mind: knowing their child is learning, growing, and thriving under experienced, caring supervision every day.

A Community Built on Trust
For families in Rajasthan seeking a CBSE education that combines academic rigour with genuine character formation, Dunes Academy offers a distraction-free campus, experienced faculty, and a values-led residential structure — an alternative to both under-resourced local day schools and far-away, impersonal metro boarding schools.
- CBSE-affiliated curriculum, Nursery to Class XII, with Science and Commerce streams
- Serene, pollution-free campus purpose-built for focused living and learning
- Experienced faculty who mentor as much as they teach
- Safe, supervised residential care for boarding students, for both boys and girls
- Holistic development through sports, arts, music, debates, tours, and festivals alongside academics
Since our founding in 2014, this has been the constant at Dunes Academy: an education where academic achievement and strong character are treated as one and the same goal, not as competing priorities.
“At Dunes Academy, we believe that education is not merely the transfer of knowledge — it is the cultivation of character. We are committed to nurturing every student in a supportive and dynamic environment where academic excellence, personal growth, and strong values go hand in hand.” — Our commitment to every family at Dunes Academy
This is the promise every family at Dunes Academy can expect us to keep — from the first day in Nursery to the last board examination in Class XII.
