Gone are the days when people preferred Swiss schools or DehraDun schools, now Bangalore is becoming the first choice for foreign students.
The international schools in Bangalore are very much in demand. Some of the popular ones are:
- The International School Bangalore (TISB)
- Jain International Residential School (JIRS)
- Indus International School (IIS)
- BGS International Residential School
- Mallya Aditi International School (MAIS)
- Canadian School of India
There are several new ones who are coming up with exceptional facilities:
- Stonehill International School, Bangalore
- Ebenezer
- TREAMIS
Details can be found in this Times of India article.

I find myself in a spot - We are contemplating moving from Malaysia to Bgl in the next 3-6 months. I have 2 kids, one in Grade 10 and another in Grade 7. My elder son in year 10 will have to remain in International curriculum - so we are looking at an international school (TISB, Sarala Birla, Canadian and Mallya Aditi are the four shortlisted till date) for him while the younger one we are contemplating shifting to CBSE (NPS, Bishop Cotton).
Any advise on pluses and minuses of these schools.
For the older one I am looking at IGCSE or IB schools as he will find it extremely hard to manage the transition if I move hm to CBSE.
Does that still allow them to join the undergrad mainstream in India ?
I visited TISB last October and was happy with the facilities and infra but it is very expensive — are there cheaper but equally good schools in Bgl ?
Also I have another issue one kid in CBSE / ICSE school, another one in an IGCSE school, work place Electronics city… What location would suit us where I could have a good international school, a good CBSE / ICSE school and decent accomodation not too far from Electronic city?
Would much appreciate any advice.
