<p>150.142.232.3: </p> <hr /> <div>{{Unreferenced|date=December 2006}}<br /> [[Image:Budhanilkantha_school.jpg|thumb|300px|right|View of the Budhanilkantha School]]<br /> '''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 Nepali and UK Governments. The British 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]]. <br /> <br /> 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.<br /> <br /> The school is considered the National School of Nepal. The main aim of the school is to provide its students with quality education and various extra curricular activities. There are several clubs in the school which organise programs of various sorts throughout the year.<br /> <br /> 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. Others criticise it as a launching ground for both students and teachers alike to go abroad. Apart from this, the school is considered mostly without fault producing a number of highly successful graduates each year. <br /> - <br /> <br /> <br /> ==External link==<br /> * [http://www.bnks.edu.np/ Budhanilkantha School web site]<br /> * [http://www.sebsonline.org/ SEBS Online - Budhanilkantha School's Alumni Website]<br /> [[Category:Schools in Nepal]]<br /> <br /> {{Nepal-stub}}<br /> {{Asia-school-stub}}</div>

<p>150.142.232.3: </p> <hr /> <div>[[Image:Budhanilkantha_school.jpg]]<br /> <br /> '''Budhanilkantha School''' is [[Nepal]]'s premier boarding high school and middle school. It was established in 1972 with the aim of being the national school of Nepal where gifted children from all of Nepali districts could get educated, including those of poor backgrounds who would otherwise not receive a strong education. The school was a boys-only school until 1995, after which, with the change of administration from a British agency to a Nepali one, it became a coeducational school. It is located on the outskirts of [[Kathmandu]] valley.<br /> <br /> =Prominent Graduates=<br /> *The late king [[Dipendra of Nepal|Dipendra Shah]]<br /> *The late prince [[Nirajan]] Shah<br /> *Present Crown Prince [[Paras]] Shah<br /> *Swarnim Wagle - UN in SriLanka<br /> *Balkrishna Joshi - Thamel.com<br /> *Khurshid Alam - Prominent Muslim <br /> *Bhusan Dahal - Drummer<br /> *Sagar Onta - President<br /> *Uttar Tamata - Past Politics<br /> *Yubraj Acharya - politics<br /> *Dr. Gopal Sapkota - Cancer Research<br /> *Dinesh Prasain - politics<br /> *Manoj Acharya-lyricist<br /> *[[Nabin K.

Prevailing problems like increasing drug use and entry into the school through corrupt means continues and individuals associated with the school continue to claim prominence. That is not to say the school does not produce a good number of intelligent/ able students. Most of these students go to foreign countries and climb <br /> corporate ladders. Their contribution and impact will be felt in coming days as more and more of them graduate from world renowned universities. However, very few have been known to engage in work related to development of Nepal. This has led many to criticise this elite school as an insitution that does not support the cause it claims to be founded on. It has become more of a &quot;launching ground&quot; for students and teachers alike to go abroad and stay abroad.<br /> <br /> At present rumours of students' dissatisfaction with the teachers and 'revolutionary' acts are flying around.<br /> ==External links==<br /> *http://www.sebsonline.org/info/<br /> *http://www.bnks.edu.np/<br /> {{Kathmandu-stub}}<br /> {{Nepal-stub}}<br /> {{school-stub}}<br /> <br /> [[Category:Educational institutions established in the 1970s]]<br /> [[Category:Schools in Nepal]]</div>
