chevron_right About Schools in Chanakyapuri, Central Delhi
Chanakyapuri is New Delhi's diplomatic enclave, with a small but distinctive school market: a CBSE core alongside the city's strongest cluster of international-curriculum schools.
The well-regarded Sanskriti School and the girls' Carmel Convent School lead the CBSE side, while The British School and the American Embassy School, along with embassy-run German and Russian schools, serve diplomatic and expatriate families. It is one of the rare Delhi pockets where international schools genuinely cluster.
Boards, getting there and admissions
The Indian-board schools are CBSE, while the international tier offers the IB Diploma, Cambridge IGCSE and the English and American curricula. The schools sit along the enclave's road grid, on Dr S Radhakrishnan Marg, Malcha Marg, Chandragupta Marg and Nyaya Marg, with Lok Kalyan Marg on the Yellow Line the nearest metro. CBSE schools admit at entry level on the Delhi Directorate of Education's points-based system, while the international and embassy schools run their own processes prioritising expatriate and diplomatic families.
Use the filters above to compare schools in Chanakyapuri by board, class and admission status. Every listing shows verified data, and schools appear on their merits rather than on paid placement.
