Ecole Mondiale World School Senior is the part of the Juhu school where the IB continuum reaches its conclusion. It is the upper school listed on our Mumbai city hub and the Mumbai IB schools hub, teaching the IB Middle Years Programme through the lower secondary grades and the full IB Diploma in the final two years. For families set on a single international pathway to university, the senior school is the payoff of the continuum, and it sits at the top of the premium band for the city.
This profile is an independent reference page. GlobalSchoolGuide takes no payment for coverage, and the senior school appears here because relocating parents ask about it, not because the school paid to be listed. We researched the facts below from the school and public sources at the time of writing, and mark anything we could not confirm as not published.
At a glance
Curriculum and academics
The senior school runs two IB programmes in sequence. The Middle Years Programme carries the lower secondary grades with a broad subject spread, an emphasis on conceptual understanding and the personal project, before the two year Diploma Programme finishes the journey with its six subject groups, the extended essay, theory of knowledge and the creativity, activity and service strand. Keeping the MYP and Diploma under one roof gives a smoother transition than schools that switch exam boards midway.
The Diploma is what most senior families are weighing. Ecole Mondiale has run it since the school opened in 2004 and has built a record of sending graduates to universities in North America, the United Kingdom and beyond. Families comparing the IB route against a Cambridge or national alternative can read our IB curriculum guide to understand how the Diploma is structured and who it suits.

Ecole Mondiale World School Senior fees
The senior years sit at the top of the Ecole Mondiale range on our Mumbai international school fees guide, in the premium band where schools run broadly from INR 11 to 18 lakh a year, with the Diploma grades carrying the highest tuition. The standing of an early full IB school and its Juhu location keep fees toward the upper end of the market. Treat the published figures as bands rather than a quote and confirm the current schedule with the school, because tuition is revised every year.
Tuition is only part of the senior budget. IB examination fees fall due in the final years and are billed separately, and a one time admission charge applies on entry. Optional transport across the western suburbs, materials, trips and university guidance costs add to the annual figure. Use the fee calculator to model the full cost of the senior years rather than the headline tuition alone.
Admissions
Because most places at Ecole Mondiale are taken lower down the school, senior entry depends on space opening up, and the two year Diploma is hard to join once it has begun, which makes availability limited. Applications follow the Indian academic year and are confirmed in the months before the start of the year, with older applicants asked to sit assessments alongside the standard documentation and a record of prior schooling.
Mid year and Diploma entry in particular cannot be relied upon. Families relocating to Mumbai with a teenager and their sights on the IB route should apply as early as possible and contact the admissions team directly to ask about availability in the specific grade and the timing of the MYP and Diploma intakes.
Location and who goes there
The senior school shares the Ecole Mondiale campus in the JVPD Scheme in Juhu, in the western suburbs near the coast, well linked to Bandra, Andheri and the wider western belt. For senior students, the location offers good transport links across the western suburbs and a setting away from the most congested parts of the city.
The senior intake is genuinely international, mixing expatriate families with internationally minded Indian households drawn to the continuum and the universities it opens. The pull of an established IB Diploma draws families from across the western suburbs.
