Let the school know you're thinking of applying — they can share their prerequisites and help you through the process.
It's best to ask — circumstances can change at any time.
The school has no boarding facilities; it is a day school. Students must reside with at least one parent/guardian in Delhi NCR who has full responsibility for the child.
The school requires uniforms for all students. Primary and Secondary have separate summer and winter daily wear, and a house-colour physical education uniform; IB students wear a dress code instead of a uniform. Uniforms may be bought from the uniform shop on the premises.
Meals are prepared on site as part of a hot lunch programme and are largely organic. A wide selection of organic snacks and healthy options is available.
Governance is provided by The British School Society's Board of Governors, comprising nine elected parent representatives; up to three co-opted members (including up to two nominated by the British High Commission); the Director; and one elected teacher representative. The President of the Society is the British High Commissioner appointed to India at the time. The Board provides strategic and fiduciary direction and oversees school operations.
