Mission

The mission of Delhi Public School R.K. Puram is "to open doors and open minds" and prepare the ground for the future of the nation.


School Profile
DPS R.K. Puram is a co-educational day-cum-boarding school, with approximately 9,500 students on its rolls, studying in three different campuses at R.K. Puram, East of Kailash and Vasant Vihar.
The school is among the most distinguished members of the Delhi Public School Society, as the path breaker in the pursuit of excellence and its endeavour of integrating quality with quantity, is reflected in the pivotal role it has played in the setting up of DPS Vasant Kunj, DPS Faridabad and DPS Manali at the national level, and in promoting three schools abroad in Kuwait, Nepal and Indonesia, for which it also co-ordinates their activities as their Linking School.
The school has also extended its expertise beyond the realm of the organisation, in collaboration with the Government of Haryana, by taking up 3 Schools in the under-privileged area of Mewat, to augment and enhance their standards and make them more conducive to teaming.
Education is a life-long process, but it must develop from firm and broad foundations. The goal of the school is to imbibe in the students a love of learning and inculcate in them a desire to excel at every level. The school also aims at equipping the students with the intellectual and practical skills that are necessary to meet the inevitable challenges in the future.

The faculty of Delhi Public School R.K. Puram shapes its special character. Each faculty member is both a teacher and a scholar, an expert in his or her own field. The faculty of Delhi Public School, R.K. Puram consists of 220 full time highly qualified teachers, who have extensive teaching experience in their respective fields.
Each staff member also imbibes the DPS culture and ethos, which is the thread that binds the entire teaching fraternity of the DPS Society. This academic community not only imparts instruction through the regular teaching periods, it also engages students in a variety of other ways, whether it is to conduct the morning assembly, bring out school publications, arrange and participate in cultural shows, or just simply arrange visits.
All teachers are also involved in some school activity, as House Wardens, Class Reps, the Environment Council, Editorial Board, Cultural Department or Sports, to name a few. In fact, all teachers also share membership with students on various committees, school houses, and supervise individual or small-group research projects. The opportunities for formal and informal relationships with the DPS faculty are plentiful and rewarding, resulting in lifelong friendships as well as professional mentorship that shape students' lives and careers.
Teaching Style
Students learn through teacher instruction, group activities and field trips. Seminars and workshops also form an integral part of the School Curriculum. Teachers use a student-centered style which instills confidence, initiative, and the development of critical and analytical skills.
Guest Speakers are also invited to the schools to familiarize the students on various academic, scientific, social and cultural issues.
