The school offers the CBSE curriculum and primarily serves the Indian expatriate community. Established in 2003, it provides education from Kindergarten (KG1) to Grade 12.
Initially established under the aegis of the Delhi Public School Society (DPS Society), the school was part of a global network of DPS institutions. In May 2018, the DPS Society formally ended its association with the school.[5] DPS Dubai has since operated independently while continuing to follow the CBSE curriculum.
Delhi Private School, Dubai, opened in 2003, initially offering co-education up to Grade 4. By 2014, the school transitioned to a fully co-educational model across all grade levels. The institution has grown significantly in both enrollment and facilities since its inception.
The school is led by Principal Rashmi Nandkeolyar, who has played a pivotal role in shaping its academic and extracurricular profile.
Located in The Gardens, a residential area in southern Dubai, the campus features:

Delhi Private School, Dubai, is regulated by the Knowledge and Human Development Authority (KHDA), which oversees private education in Dubai. As per the most recent KHDA inspection, the school received a rating of "Very Good" for the academic year 2023–24.[3]

A private school or independent school is a school not administered or funded by the government, unlike a public school. Private schools are not dependent upon national or local government for their funding. Unless privately owned, they typically have a board of governors and have a system of governance that ensures their independent operation. Private schools retain the right to select their students and are funded in whole or in part by charging their students for tuition, rather than relying on taxation through public (government) funding; at some private schools students may be eligible for a scholarship, lowering this tuition fee, dependent on a student's talents or abilities (e.g., sports scholarship, art scholarship, academic scholarship), need for financial aid, or tax credit scholarships that might be available. Roughly one in 10 U.S. families have chosen to enroll their children in private school for the past century. Some private schools are associated with a particular religious denomination or religion, such as Roman Catholicism, various branches of Protestantism, or Judaism. Although private schools may have a religious affiliation, the precise use of the term excludes parochial (and other) schools if there is a financial dependence upon, or governance subordinate to, outside (religious) organizations. These definitions generally apply equally to both primary and secondary education.

Before the 1921 destruction of Tulsa’s Greenwood District, Black residents had created a remarkable center of business and community life. The district included stores, professional offices, entertainment venues and homes owned by Black citizens. Understanding Greenwood means learning what was built—not only what was burned.
