International Schools in Delhi, India

Delhi and the wider National Capital Region (NCR) hosts a mixed ecosystem of international and international-style schools: many run International Baccalaureate and Cambridge/IGCSE programmes or adaptations of the British and American systems, while a number of private campuses offer international streams alongside Indian boards such as CBSE or ICSE. English is the usual language of instruction, with Hindi taught as a compulsory or second language and French, German, Spanish and Mandarin commonly available as additional languages; a small number of schools follow French or German national systems and operate bilingually. Annual tuition varies widely - parents can expect everything from lower-fee private schools to mid-tier international programmes (often in the several-lakh range per year) and premium campuses nearer the higher end of the market, with extra charges for transport, development fees and activities. Admissions typically require early planning, with age-appropriate assessments or interviews for older children, and relocating families should factor commute times across Delhi, Gurgaon and Noida as well as visa/documentation requirements for foreign nationals when they shortlist schools.
