D Y Patil International School

Excellence is a way of life at D Y Patil International School
DY Patil International School (DYPIS) is a school that believes in innovation school where thinking out of the box is instilled deep. They believe that innovation can come from either ‘invention’ or ‘iteration’, however if it does not meet the idea of ‘resourceful and usable’’ it is not innovative. Teachers are facilitators and students are encouraged to be independent explorers in this process of learning and innovating.

As you walk through DYPIS, not only will the enthusiasm and pride of their students for their school greet you, but a collection of some amazing student work on the walls. The pride you will see in the eyes of the students is because they are the school. The students see their work and art displayed in every facet of the school. This empowers the students; as ownership of not only the product, but the process is equally crucial.


The school is biased towards work done by students, as they would rather see the imperfect work of a student then the perfect work of a staff member. This not only leads to more pride and ownership at the school but it also leads to real life opportunities now that can lead to opportunities in the future.

The process of learning is what is honoured and students are encouraged to adopt a reflective stance rather than just being either too critical about themselves or too lenient. This creates a safe place to make mistakes and learn from them which is a crucial part of learning. Students consider mistakes as the opportunities to reflect on themselves as learners, be it community service, role play or music performance, writer’s workshop or something as simple as their invented spelling in language lab.

The educational ideals and practices which prevail at D Y Patil International School are worth considering. They advocate that now is the time to increase opportunities, to multiply privileges, to raise standards of living and to insure through conservative action a substantial basis on which the coming generations may safely build. DYPIS Worli invests considerable time in supporting and preparing students for their transition to higher education and has close links with reputable universities for placements. A majority of graduating students, who aspire to pursue higher education, receive first choice admissions into excellent universities in UK and USA. There are also students attending universities in many other countries worldwide including Australia, Hong Kong, Singapore and Canada.

Here at D Y Patil International School, the chairpersons, administration and staff do agree that development should encompass more than just intelligence, which is why they focus on adversity, social and emotional quotient as well.

Students are not far behind when it comes to co-curricular and extra-curricular activities like creative writing club, Spell Bee, MUN, literature fest, social science club, Diplomathon, Robotics and STEAM. In the field of sports, DYPIS has produced high achievers in the various categories like football, chess, Taekwondo etc. Students take part in all MSSA and DSO sports tournaments, besides qualifying for swimming competitions like GMMM and other aquatic championships. Students are also trained in arts, drama, public speaking, dance, skating and more. The student council is encouraged to conduct in house events like Teachers Day, exhibitions, fun fair and the like.

Students go out on excursions, domestic field trips and International educational tours to have a well planned learning experience, away from school. DYPIS Worli, played host to students of DYPIS Belgium who were in Mumbai through the student exchange programme. This year they will be visiting the D Y Patil International School in Belgium.

Teachers are continually attending professional development workshops to upgrade their understanding and practices of the international educational community and dispense the same to their cohorts.

All these reflect the very high standards and expectations for teaching and learning and the calibre and ability of the student body at D Y Patil International School, Worli. At DYPIS, they constantly talk about preparing students for the opportunities in the future, but they truly believe that there is no time like the present to create this within the school and society.
