In Brief
If you are committed to the full IB Continuum from age three and want boarding flexibility in the NCR region, Pathways is the strongest single option. The Gurugram location is the trade-off; from south Delhi or Noida, the commute is real.
Pathways was India's first IB Continuum school and remains the benchmark in the Delhi NCR IB market. The 32-acre LEED Platinum campus in the Aravalli foothills, off Gurgaon-Sohna road, is green and purposefully designed, well away from city noise. Day boarding and full residential options are available from Grade 1, which suits corporate families with unpredictable travel schedules.
IB Diploma averages have tracked steadily above the global mean for more than 15 years (33.3 in 2025, 33.54 in 2024), and over 30% of faculty are IB examiners or workshop leaders. The school draws 16+ nationalities and operates closer to the international school model than a typical Indian private school. University placement to UK, US, and Canadian institutions is well-documented.
The Gurugram location is the honest caveat. If your family is based in south Delhi, Noida, or central Delhi, you are looking at 45-75 minutes each way during school run hours. Transport fees for Delhi routes run to INR 85,000 per half-year, and the commute is a recurring topic among Delhi-based families considering the school. Parent reviews are mixed on food quality, which is worth asking about if boarding.
What parents value
- –Consistent IB Diploma averages above 33, well above the global mean of 30. Over 30% of faculty are IB examiners; the curriculum expertise is genuinely deep.
- –32-acre LEED Platinum campus with boarding, sports, and outdoor learning. India's first IB Continuum school; PYP, MYP, and Diploma all on one site.
- –Boarding options from Grade 1 give flexibility for travelling corporate families. Day, weekly, fortnightly, and term boarding all available.
Points of consideration
- –Gurugram campus is 35 km from the city centre. From south Delhi or Noida, commute times of 45-75 minutes each way are realistic at school run hours. Delhi transport routes cost INR 85,000 per half-year.
- –Food quality in the boarding programme is worth asking about directly. Speak to current boarding families before committing; feedback has been variable.
