'''Pt. Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Sanatan Dharma Vidyalaya''' is an English medium school situated in [[Kanpur]], [[Uttar Pradesh]], [[India]]. The method of teaching is based on standards set by [[New Delhi]]'s [[Central Board of Secondary Education]] (CBSE). The school provides secondary education up to 10+2 level. Sharad Sharma is the current incumbent principal of the school.{{citation needed|date=December 2020}}

The school is named ''in memoriam'' of [[Deen Dayal Upadhyaya]], a [[pandit]] known as a philosopher, ideologue, thinker and social worker. The foundation of this institution was laid by [[M. S. Golwalkar|Shri Guruji]] on 23 February 1970, on the land given by Shri Brahmavarta Sanatan Dharm Mahamandal. Before the construction of the present building, the initial commencement was made at Saraswati Shishu Mandir, Tilak Nagar with a meager strength of 24 students in class 6. The present semi-circular double storeyed building located at Nawabganj, was inaugurated in July 1971.<ref name="pddu">{{cite web|author= |url=http://pddusdv.com/Aboutus.aspx |title=About Pt.
