For families comparing the full IB schools among the international schools in New Delhi and the wider Delhi NCR, Pathways School Noida is one of the leading names east of the city. It runs the complete IB continuum and was the first IB continuum school in north India. This profile sets out what GlobalSchoolGuide Editorial has verified about its curriculum, fees and admissions.
We are independent and no school pays to be listed, so this is a reference for relocating parents rather than promotion. Where a fact could not be confirmed, we mark it as not published.
At a glance
Curriculum and academics
Pathways Noida runs the full International Baccalaureate continuum: the Primary Years Programme in the junior school, the Middle Years Programme through the middle grades and the IB Diploma Programme in Grades 11 and 12, with the Career related Programme offered alongside the Diploma. That gives an internationally mobile family a single recognised framework from the early years to university entry, which is the main reason families choose an IB continuum school over a national curriculum route.
Although it is sometimes shortlisted by families looking at American curriculum schools for the route it offers to universities abroad, Pathways is an IB school rather than an American one, and families weighing the two routes can see our roundup of the best American schools in New Delhi for the alternative. The school is co educational and admits across the full age range. For how Pathways sits against its peers, the New Delhi city hub sets out the wider landscape.

Admissions
Pathways admits for an April start in line with the Indian school year and considers applications through the year where places exist. Admissions reviews previous school reports and sets assessments suited to the year group, with the senior grades weighed against the Diploma courses that lead to external examinations.
Demand for IB places in the Delhi NCR is strong, and turnover among mobile corporate families can free occasional places mid year. Register early for sought after year groups and ask about waiting lists if you are relocating outside the standard cycle.
Location and who goes there
The school sits on a campus in Sector 100 in Noida, within reach of the residential sectors and gated communities along the Noida and Greater Noida Expressway where many corporate and expatriate families in the eastern Delhi NCR live. The location keeps the commute manageable for families based across Noida, and the school runs transport across the area.
The community is international and corporate, with returning NRI households and expatriate families drawn by the full IB continuum and the university destinations it leads to. For the full landscape of districts, curricula and fees across the capital, see the New Delhi city hub.
