Deccan International School

A South Bangalore ICSE and Cambridge school in Brindavan Layout, Padmanabhanagar, founded in 2003 by K. N. Tilak Kumar. Caters to families across JP Nagar, Banashankari and Kanakapura Road.

ICSE through Grade 10 and ISC at 11 and 12, alongside a Cambridge route from Lower Secondary into IGCSE and AS / A Levels. Average class size around 30, ratio about 18:1. Tuition is approachable by international-school standards in Bangalore, around 90,000 INR per year before transport, meals and add-ons.

The campus carries the standard kit: smart classrooms, science and computer labs, a library, sports courts, a swimming pool and an auditorium. Reviews are mixed, with positive notes on the holistic ethos and a community service tie-up with the Ashram School, set against complaints typical of mid-tier private schools on consistency and management. Best fit for South Bangalore families wanting Cambridge or ICSE close to home rather than the marquee international circuit.

• Deccan International is a south Bangalore school in Padmanabhanagar offering ICSE, IGCSE and A Level under one roof. It draws from JP Nagar, Banashankari, Kanakapura Road and Uttarahalli.
• Local Bangalore forum threads consistently describe the school as a good option for AS and A Level in particular. One r/igcse commenter said "the education and teachers are brilliant and it's pretty affordable as well."
• The campus reputation is built partly on facilities. The Netkallappa Aquatic Centre on site is widely rated by Bangalore commenters as one of the best maintained pools in the city, and parents single out tennis, swimming and the broader sports programme.
• The student-teacher ratio is around 18:1 with average class sizes of 30. Reviewers describe staff as supportive and the co-curricular range as broad.
• Parent reviews on Indian school directories sit around. Recurring complaints are administrative: the admission process, fee increases and inconsistent communication. Cleanliness has come up more than once. a real factor about how the school is handling fee rises and parent communication.
