The Immersion Programme is a 6 to 8 week program offered at DPS International from April to May every year. The objective of this program is to help the students get a feel of school life at DPS International and ease their entry into a new school environment. This is a specially designed program for students transferring from educational systems other than the International Baccalaureate(IB). The teachers assist the new students in acquiring academic and social skills and individual attention is also provided to close any identified academic gaps these students may have. The students also get an opportunity to make friends and bond with their classmates well before the new academic year begins in August.
We offer a limited number of seats for the Immersion Programme on a ‘first come first served’ basis.
DPS International is an inclusive school and offers SEN support. The seats in the SEN department are limited and admissions are subject to availability of seats and resources.
