Dhirubhai Ambani International School (DAIS) in Mumbai ranks ninth worldwide in the 2026 global IB Diploma Programme (IBDP) rankings by Education Advisers UK. All three outlets say it is the only Indian school in the global top 10.
Each source reports DAIS’s Class of 2026 achieved an average score of 40.8 out of 45 points, described as the school’s highest-ever average since it began offering the IB Diploma Programme. Coverage also highlights the size of the cohort, with DAIS having 105 IBDP students—reported as the largest among the top 10 schools. The school’s explanation for the result is consistent across outlets, pointing to academic focus, collaboration, and a wider approach to education.
Differences are mostly in depth rather than substance. One outlet adds a brief description of what the IBDP involves (exams, coursework and internal assessments), while the others focus more directly on the ranking result and DAIS’s cited reasons for performance.
