'''Budhanilkantha School''' is a public and boarding school. Instructions start from the 4th grade through high school. It was established in [[1972]] on the outskirts of [[Kathmandu]] valley with the aim of being the national school where gifted children from all corners of Nepal could get educated, including those from poor economic backgrounds, who might otherwise not receive good education. More than one-third of the students receive some form of [[scholarship]] from the government or private British organizations to cover the cost of their education and stay in school. The school was opened by the British who also ran the administration of the school until 1995, after which the administration was handed over to Nepalis. The school was an [[all boys school]] until [[1992]], when it became [[co-educational]].

The school educates students from grades 4 to 10, following the government curriculum. After completing grade 10, students can choose between studying for the [[University of Cambridge]] [[GCE]] [[A-levels]] or the Higher Secondary Education Board's +2 education programme. Most students go on to attend colleges and universities in [[Nepal]], [[India]], the [[United States]], and the [[United Kingdom]]. The alumni association ([http://www.sebsonline.org/ SEBS Online]) of Budhanilkantha school is actively engaged in uplifting Nepalese society through various programmes.

The school is considered the national school of Nepal. The main aim of the school is to provide the students some quality education along with some extra curricular activities. There are quite a few clubs in the school which organise programs of various sorts throughout the year.

Budhanilkantha school is a fully residential school. Students are assigned to the 12 houses according to sex and class standing. Most of the teachers also live within the compounds of the school. Because of these circumstances many argue that Budhanilkantha School is an educational bubble greatly lacking in providing a thriving enviroment for social skill development. Apart from this, the school is considered mostly without fault producing a number of highly successful graduate each year.
