Background
Metro Delhi International School (MDIS) is an international school that runs an American curriculum. The school was founded by a Christian community, and Christian values shape its ethos. Metro Delhi International School opened in 2002 and now serves students from Pre-K to Grade 12. Students sit Cambridge IGCSE exams in Grade 10 and AP exams in Grade 12, and the school is an authorised test centre for AP and SAT exams.
The school is proud to serve the Christian community in Delhi. As part of this heritage, the main concern is not just with the academic side of development but there is also a focus on building the character and social conscience of the students. MDIS has a holistic approach to education where values, ethics, servant leadership and so forth are prioritised and embedded into the school's teaching practice.
Fees
Tuition fees for 2022/2023 school year range from INR 63,000 per semester in Pre-K1 (three days a week) to INR 2,81,000 per semester in Grades 11 and 12. There are two semesters per school year. There is a once-off fee of INR 15,000 for the application and admission assessment.
Tuition is payable quarterly or half-yearly, and the school publishes separate fee schedules for Indian and OCI passport holders and for foreign nationals. It doesn't discount tuition case by case, but it does offer a sibling policy, a corporate partnership waiver and merit scholarships in Grades 11 and 12.
From the principal
"At Metro Delhi International School, we operate an American educational programme that is based on the NY Engage Common Core Curriculum. This is a rigorous programme that challenges students to employ higher-level thinking skills such as evaluating, creating, and analysing. High academic performance is not the only priority for MDIS, we are built on a foundation of Christian values and as a result a biblical worldview permeates through all our courses. Character development, ethical reasoning, and servant leadership are examples of aspects of healthy development that are too often ignored in education.
"MDIS is accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC), which is an American accrediting body. We are also accredited with the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI). A high school diploma from MDIS is your child’s pathway to international universities and colleges. Additionally, we are also recognised by the Association of Indian Universities (AIU), so continuing in India is also an option.
"At MDIS we believe education is the continuing process through which children begin to develop a sense of their own worth. Since every experience is a part of that process, our responsibility is to provide the opportunity for intellectual, physical, emotional, spiritual and social growth.
"We are proud of our heritage and strong foundations. We look forward to serving you through the provision of a quality and well-rounded education for your greatest asset, your children."
– Mr James Bellingham, Principal
