Established in 1950, The Indian School Bahrain (ISB) is one of the largest community schools in the Gulf region, operating across two expansive campuses in Riffa and Isa Town. The school follows the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) curriculum, offering a structured academic path from Lower Kindergarten through to Grade 12. The Isa Town campus houses senior students and features the Jashanmal Auditorium, extensive libraries, and specialized laboratories for Physics, Chemistry, and Biology. A distinct feature of the school is its vibrant extracurricular calendar, anchored by the "Tarang" Youth Festival, which serves as a major platform for students to compete in music, dance, and literary events. Additionally, the school organizes "Technofest," a large-scale science exhibition that encourages student innovation in STEM fields. The Riffa campus is dedicated exclusively to early years and lower primary education, providing a focused environment for younger learners.
