Perched atop a mountain with magnificent view of the valley with over 50 acres of lush green campus, we take pride in being one of the few purely boarding schools in Maharashtra with every conceivable amenity on campus. As the famous American poet and philosopher Ralph Waldo Emerson quoted “The shoemaker makes a good shoe because he makes nothing else”, RiverDale specialises in running an exclusively residential program, with no day scholars or weekly boarders.
About the school
RiverDale International School is a co-educational full boarding school set in Pune, Maharashtra. The school has been running since 2003, giving it 23 years of continuous operation in Pune. RIS follows the ICSE / CISCE curriculum and covers up to the senior secondary stage.
Campus and learning spaces
On the operations front, the 50 Acres campus at RIS lists 12 learning spaces — including Boys Hostel, Girls Hostel, Wifi, Smart Classes, Debate and Music, plus 6 more. Between them, these spaces support classroom teaching, structured sport and the school's co-curricular calendar.
Parent fit
Families comparing RIS against other ICSE schools in Pune usually weigh three things: how the school handles the transition between primary and senior school, the strength of the co-curricular calendar, and how transparent the admissions team is during the enquiry. If you're choosing between CBSE and IB for the long-term exit, factor in the colleges your child is most likely to apply to — that decision often settles the board question more cleanly than a side-by-side feature comparison. Use the Compare tool on the platform to stack RIS against one or two finalists on board, fees, facilities and parent ratings before booking the campus visit round.

RIS follows the ICSE / CISCE curriculum, with English as the primary medium of instruction. Additional languages taught include English and Hindi.

Learning depth
Day-to-day, RIS's learning environment combines classroom teaching with hands-on time in computer lab, GPS-tracked buses and smart classrooms where the campus supports it. Continuous assessment is layered on top of the term examinations, with project work and lab assignments contributing to the final grade in most subjects.
