About international schools in Mumbai, India

Mumbai’s IB international schools typically offer one or more IB programmes (Primary Years, Middle Years and Diploma), delivered mainly in English and built around inquiry-based, internationally recognised assessment. Schools balance English-medium teaching with compulsory local-language tuition - usually Hindi or Marathi - while many also offer French, Spanish, German or Mandarin as additional languages. Annual tuition varies widely by school and year group; published ranges in Mumbai commonly show mid-lakh entry points at primary level and substantially higher fees for senior/DP years depending on facilities and services. Admissions run to each school’s own calendar, often including assessments and interviews, so relocating families should begin enquiries well before their move and allow extra budget for deposits, transport and exam or activity fees.

FAQs for India

What is the difference between the PYP, MYP and DP programmes?
The IB Primary Years Programme (PYP) is designed for younger children and focuses on inquiry and transdisciplinary learning, the Middle Years Programme (MYP) supports early adolescents with subject-based and interdisciplinary study, and the Diploma Programme (DP) is a two-year pre-university course for students aged about 16 - 19 that combines internal and external assessment. Each programme has its own age range and assessment model but shares IB’s learner profile and emphasis on critical thinking and global perspectives.
How much do IB international schools in Mumbai generally cost?
Published fee guides for Mumbai show a broad spread: annual tuition at IB schools can start in the lower mid-lakh range at primary level and rise substantially for older grades, with many schools publishing higher fees for Diploma years; total costs also commonly include one-time admission charges, transport and exam or activity levies. Families should request the current full fee schedule from each school because published ranges vary significantly between institutions and year groups.
What language(s) will my child be taught in, and what local languages are included?
Most IB schools in Mumbai teach primarily in English while meeting local language requirements by offering Hindi or Marathi classes; many schools also provide additional modern languages such as French, Spanish, German or Mandarin depending on demand. Parents should check the school’s language policy and how second-language learning is timetabled, especially in early years and for Diploma course selections.
When should a relocating family start the admissions process?
Because admissions calendars are set by each school and popular year groups have limited places, families moving to Mumbai are advised to begin enquiries six to twelve months before arrival where possible, to allow time for assessments, interviews and document checks. Shorter timelines are possible but may reduce options for preferred intake years, transport routes or sibling placement.
What should I look for when visiting IB schools in Mumbai?
Look for how the school implements inquiry and assessment in classrooms, the ratio of experienced IB-trained teachers, the clarity of language provision (English plus local/modern languages), and practical details such as transport, pastoral support and extra costs that affect total affordability. Also review sample reports, recent external evaluation or authorisation records and how the school supports transitions for international or newly arrived students.
