Yadavindra Public School

The school is organised in three wings. The Foundation Wing takes the youngest children from Nursery, with Prep I and Prep II following; the class-age table places Nursery at 3 to 4 years, Prep I at 4 to 5, Prep II at 5 to 6 and Class I from 6. The Junior Wing continues the primary years. The Senior Wing covers Classes VI to XII and prepares pupils for the board examinations. Day places run from Nursery to Class II, boarding starts in Class III, and Classes III to IX and XI are open to new boarders, with no admissions into Class X or XII.

The motto Vidya, Vinay, Veerta stands for wisdom, virtue and valour, and the school reads it as a commitment to rounded education rather than academic results alone: growth of body and mind together. Its own measure of success is whether pupils turn out as the vision describes, which is why pastoral care, life skills, behavioural counselling and service and leadership programmes sit alongside lessons. Speaking in public and building confidence are treated as entitlements for every pupil, and internationalism is pursued through Model United Nations work and overseas trips.

The campus covers over 45 acres inside the Yadavindra Sports Stadium. Classrooms have interactive boards, and academic facilities include science laboratories, a robotics and AI lab, extensive libraries, a medical room and a cyber cafe. Co-curricular work is supported by an 800-seat auditorium, an open-air amphitheatre, art rooms, dance rooms, a music room and an audio-visual room.

Boarders are admitted from Class III and the school is working towards full residentiality. Pastoral provision includes a learning support centre, career and behavioural counselling, life skills classes and a pastoral care programme, and there is a medical facility on campus. Pupils wear a school uniform, and uniforms and books are bought by families. Fees are paid through the school's app or online gateway, in two instalments for boarders and four for day pupils. Tours, treks and adventure camps are organised for the younger wings.

Boarding begins in Class III and is central to the school, which was conceived as a fully boarding school and is working towards that again. Classes III to IX and XI are open to new boarders, and pupils who join the lower years as day scholars must re-apply as boarders to continue past Class V. The residential area sits inside the same 45-acre campus as the academic block and the sports fields, so boarders have the stadium, pool, courts and playing fields on their doorstep. Boarding fees for 2026-27 are published at ₹343,000 a year for Indian national students, payable in two half-yearly instalments, with imprest money held against actual expenses. Boarders from a number of countries are part of the school community.

Sport is compulsory for every pupil and the school offers 22 disciplines, among them cricket, hockey, football, swimming, athletics, tennis, basketball, badminton, squash, boxing, shooting and horse riding, each with its own coaches. Inter-house competitions run through the year and the season closes with an annual sports day watched by some 2,500 spectators, where cash awards and scholarships go to the strongest athletes. Pupils regularly place at IPSC meetings, Khelo India and international events. Every pupil must also take a structured hobby, from art and craft, music, dance, chess, cookery, photography, web design, 3D printing, robotics and book reading.
