More than a school — a home. Where daily rhythm, global community, nature, and wellbeing come together.
Each day begins with the rising sun — students and teachers gather for morning meditation and yoga, setting a serene tone. Classes encourage inquiry and exploration, blending traditional subjects like philosophy and Ayurveda with science, technology, and environmental studies. The day flows between learning, community, and time in nature.
With representation from over 25 countries, Sarala forms a miniature global village celebrating cultural diversity. Students play an active role in maintaining their environment — from collective cleaning to shared meals — cultivating a profound sense of belonging. The friendships forged here are lasting, woven into a warm and inclusive community where fear is absent and creativity thrives.
Nestled within the scenic expanses near Glastonbury, spanning over 40 acres of lush parkland and gardens, students gain firsthand experience in agriculture — from sowing seeds to harvesting the earth's bounty. Environmental stewardship is central to the curriculum, deepening appreciation through hands-on engagement with the natural world.
We support a wide range of physical activities — swimming, football, yoga, climbing, badminton, pilates, hiking, dance, and ultimate frisbee. Understanding the pressures of modern life, mental health support is integrated throughout our programmes, ensuring comprehensive care for every student's psychological and physical wellbeing.
Leveraging Glastonbury's rich spiritual heritage, Sarala offers unique opportunities for spiritual growth and exploration. Special events, retreats, and excursions to local sites of historical and spiritual significance enrich the learning experience.
Students develop a deeper understanding of themselves and the world around them, integrating real-world application with transcendental knowledge in a setting that has drawn seekers for thousands of years.
Students engage in projects and initiatives that address contemporary challenges, integrating their learning with action to effect positive change in their communities and beyond.
The Sarala team offers dedicated one-on-one guidance as students navigate their path to higher education, apprenticeships, art colleges, global travel, volunteer work, or professional opportunities.
Students are empowered with real autonomy, working closely with mentors to develop critical thinking, creativity, and intrinsic motivation that propels them to excel in both professional and personal life.
