Boarding Schools in Dehradun

The Doon School

Welcome to The Doon School. We are a school which specializes in all boys boarding education for pupils aged 12-18.

Established in 1935, The Doon School is one of India’s finest schools, with a strong intellectual heartbeat. The Doon School is a full boarding school for boys only and not simply a school which welcomes boarders. The school’s beautiful seventy acre campus with a vast range of flora, fauna and bird life provide all boys with ample green space and fresh air where they are able to live and learn. It is an environment rarely offered by schools in large and small cities in India, or indeed some other countries. All boys are able to seek advice from the teaching staff, the Wellness Centre and the school counsellor living on the school campus throughout the seven day week. Boys discover that they have much more time to study and pursue their wider interests. There is no wasted time travelling to learn Sport, Art, Music, Drama and benefit from Careers Guidance as well as other necessary university and college entrance preparation.

It was opened in a cottage known as Manor House; the name by which the campus is still known. The students are known as Manorites. The school has an alumni network spread across the globe. In 2005, the Indian Air Force gifted the school a trainer jet aircraft, TS-11 Iskra, as a tribute to the distinguished service of the school’s alumni in the armed forces.

Nestled in the foothills of the Himalayas over an area of 30 acres, the school lies amidst the hills and rivers of the Doon valley.

Latham & Watkins London lawyer reveals double life as castle-living Lord

Intellectual property specialist lives on a 3,500-acre estate

Charles Courtenay pictured in front of Powderham Castle

A high-flying City lawyer who resides in a 14th-century castle recently became the House of Lords’ newest hereditary peer.

Charles Courtenay is a barrister in Latham & Watkins‘ London office and leads the US titan’s intellectual property practice. According to his firm profile, he studied history of art at Cambridge and spent eight years at Latham’s Los Angeles HQ before returning to the UK.

What the online bio doesn’t tell you is that the 43-year-old is also the 19th Earl of Devon and was recently elected to the House of Lords.

The Eton-educated lawyer, who inherited the earldom following the death of Lord Devon in 2015, won a crossbench hereditary peers’ by-election earlier this summer by 12 votes to five. Courtenay was among 19 aristocrats who put themselves forward following the retirement of independent crossbencher Earl Baldwin of Bewdley.

Now, in an interview with The Telegraph (£), Courtenay has reflected on his life so far and the responsibilities that come with being the Lord of the manor — quite literally.

Courtenay splits his working week between Latham’s London office and Powderham Castle, the family’s 3,500-acre estate near Exmouth, Devon. Along with his wife Allison Joy, a former US actress who appeared in shows including Baywatch, the City lawyer has been managing the vast property since 2015.

The 2019 Firms Most List

One of his first major undertakings as the new Earl of Devon was to host 50,000 festival-goers for Radio 1’s Big Weekend in 2016 (video below). He tells the newspaper: “The Big Weekend was the first event that I booked. We got to launch our stewardship to a bunch of teenagers.”

never getting over @bbcradio1 #bigweekend

thank you guys so much for having me and @kygomusic in Exeter. Hope to see u next year!

A post shared by Parson James (@iamparsonjames) on May 29, 2016 at 6:06pm PDT

As well as restarting public tours of Powderham, the couple have launched a new farm shop that sells local produce and raised the profile of the castle through appearances on TV programmes like Mary Berry’s Country House Secrets. Courtenay continues:

“Powderham has always been a public building, but it is also a private home, so running the two tours allows us to focus on that. “We’re a bit of a hold-out in the respect of still having guided tours, but with a guide you can pitch the house to your audience.”

The house, which welcomed more than 39,000 visitors last year, has gone on to host concerts for artists such as Little Mix, Bryan Adams and Sir Tom Jones. “People say, why do you run a visitor business, it’s not profitable,” Courtenay says. “If you were being hard-nosed about it, you’d only open for big concerts and private functions. That may well be easier.”

But the Latham lawyer is keen to keep Powderham open and hopes it will one day pay for itself. “Then we’ll be in a position to reinvest in pictures, and roofs and all the rest,” he tells the newspaper.

Courtenay completed his legal studies at the Inns of Court School of Law and was called to the to the bar by the Inner Temple. Prior to joining Latham, Courtenay was a member of 9 Old Square (now Maitland Chambers) where he remains a door tenant.
