About the school: We live today in a world that is so very different from the one that we grew up in.

At Delhi Public School Gomti Nagar, we ensure a well balanced curriculum so that when these children walk out of the portals of our school they are ready to face the challenges of life. Our school has a lot to offer. Properly graded curriculum for physical education designed by Edusports is implemented right from Pre-Primary to Grade XII.
