Best Schools in Malviya Nagar, Delhi 2026-27

Malviya Nagar is a well-connected residential colony in South Delhi, sitting between Saket and Hauz Khas, and its own schools are a handful of mid-tier and budget schools following the CBSE pattern across Shivalik, Khirki Extension and Sheikh Sarai — such as Malviya Public School and Arya Public School — while the larger, formally affiliated premium schools families associate with the area sit just across the boundary in Saket.

On the Yellow Line of the Delhi Metro and a short hop from Saket and Hauz Khas, Malviya Nagar is one of South Delhi's better-linked neighbourhoods, which keeps it a practical schooling base whether you choose a school within the colony or one in the adjoining areas.

Where Malviya Nagar's schools are

Malviya Nagar's schools sit mainly in its sub-localities — Shivalik Colony, Khirki Extension, Sheikh Sarai and Panchsheel Vihar — rather than one cluster, with a few in the older Begumpur and Khirki village lanes. Because the colony blends into Saket and Hauz Khas, families here routinely compare local schools with the better-known ones just across those boundaries. Max Hospital Saket and the Hauz Khas complex are the familiar landmarks that frame the area.

Notable schools in Malviya Nagar

Within the colony, Malviya Public School on Khirki Extension Road (running since 1969) and Arya Public School in Shivalik Colony are among the established local names, alongside Swarn Public School, NGF Junior School and Sant Nirankari Public School. These follow the CBSE curriculum pattern but run to Class 8, so families continuing to senior school — and those wanting a formally CBSE-affiliated or premium option — also look just across to Saket, where names like New Green Field School sit. Use the listings above to compare each on board, classes and fees.

Which boards Malviya Nagar schools follow

The schools within Malviya Nagar follow the CBSE curriculum pattern, though most run only to Class 8 and are recognised by the Directorate of Education rather than holding a senior CBSE affiliation of their own — the formally affiliated CBSE senior schools families use sit just across in Saket and Pushp Vihar. For ICSE or international programmes such as the IB and IGCSE, families typically look towards Saket, Hauz Khas and Vasant Vihar.

What schools in Malviya Nagar cost

Fees within the colony sit mostly in the affordable-to-mid band, with the local schools more moderate than the larger senior schools just across in Saket, which run higher. Whichever you consider, budget for admission, annual and development charges alongside tuition, and check each listing for the current figure, as Delhi private-school fees are revised each session.

Do Malviya Nagar schools go up to Class 12?

The schools within the colony run to Class 8, after which students move to a senior secondary school nearby — many in the adjoining Saket and Hauz Khas belt — for Classes 9 to 12 with Science, Commerce and Arts streams.

Getting to Malviya Nagar schools

Malviya Nagar is well connected by the Delhi Metro. The Malviya Nagar station on the Yellow Line, running since 2010, sits within the colony, with Saket one stop south and Hauz Khas one stop north. With the outer Ring Road and bus routes alongside, the school pockets across Shivalik, Khirki Extension and Sheikh Sarai are easy to reach by metro, auto, bus or car.

How admission works in Malviya Nagar

Entry-class forms usually open between November and January for the coming session. Private schools set their own admission criteria, while DoE-recognised schools weigh the Delhi nursery points system that favours distance from home and siblings already enrolled. Apply early and keep the child's documents ready.
