What the inspectors said
Strengths the inspectors named:
- Wellbeing judged Outstanding in 2023-24 - an ‘exceptional wellbeing vision… fully embedded in daily practice’, with staff described as valued and cared for, and regular surveys giving students, parents and staff a genuine voice.
- Inclusion rated Very Good: 228 students of determination and 272 gifted-and-talented learners supported by a Head of Inclusion, three special educators, three counsellors and 26 support staff.
- Inspectors commend an ‘ambitious vision’ to integrate more students of determination in coming years.
- Outstanding student behaviour and an extensive extracurricular breadth - long-standing hallmarks across its inspection history.
What they asked the school to improve:
- The historic pattern holds: English, mathematics and science Good, with Islamic Education and Arabic at Acceptable - the gap between pastoral excellence and core-subject ceiling is the question to probe.
Inclusion (students of determination): Very Good - 228 students of determination plus 272 identified with gifts and talents (120 gifted, 152 talented) for 2025-26, supported by a Head of Inclusion, three special educators, three counsellors and 26 support staff. Provision runs on a three-tier system classifying support intensity, with differentiated instruction, assistive technology and multi-sensory teaching, and the ASDAN curriculum offering an alternative pathway. Inspectors commended an ‘ambitious vision’ to integrate more students of determination in coming years; wellbeing is rated Outstanding. See the special educational needs guide for the questions to ask on a visit.

What we don't know about this school
Every other page on this site tells you what we have verified. This one tells you what we have not, because a register you cannot calibrate is worth less than one you can. We do not currently hold:
- its fees - this school has not published them
- whether it is co-educational, boys or girls
- how many children are on roll
- its facilities - sports, arts, science, library
- published exam results or university destinations
- what registration, transport, uniform and meals add to the fee
- the year it opened - the figure we held was wrong on every school we checked
None of it is guessed or filled in from a similar school. Ask for any of it using the form below and it moves up the queue - requests are how we decide what to collect next.
Ask this school a question - we'll do the asking
Tell us the year group, and we will ask Delhi Private School what it costs, whether there is a place, and what the next step is. Then we send you what they say. Every answer we get is also checked into this school's record, so the next parent finds it already here.
Your details stay with us. We contact the school ourselves, and we do not pass your name or address to them, or to any agent, unless you ask us to. No school pays to appear in this guide, and none can pay to change what it says.
