International Schools in Dehradun, India

Dehradun’s international-school scene sits alongside a long tradition of residential and day schools in the Doon Valley, so families will find both city campuses and larger boarding campuses in the Himalayan foothills. Schools in the area commonly offer International Baccalaureate (IB) programmes, Cambridge IGCSE/AS/A-Level pathways and Indian boards (CBSE and CISCE), with English the normal medium of instruction and Hindi plus European languages such as French, German or Spanish routinely taught. Published fees vary widely by type: local day schools and national-board programmes commonly sit in the lower lakhs per year while residential international campuses often charge in the high lakhs to over a million rupees annually. Admissions are handled school-by-school but popular boarding schools open registrations many months before the new session and typically use entry forms, short assessments or interviews and document checks, so begin enquiries well ahead of your move.
