Amity Education Group is delighted to announce an agreement with Harrow School, UK to establish Harrow International Schools in India and New York, which will take forward Harrow’s 450 years old legacy.

Harrow School is one of the world’s most famous schools. Founded in 1572 under a Royal Charter by Queen Elizabeth I, it is located on a 324 acre estate in London and has numerous illustrious alumni like Jawahar Lal Nehru, Winston Churchill, literary figure Lord Byron, and innumerable Nobel Laureates.

The Harrow Values of courage, honour, humility, and fellowship deeply resonate with Amity’s values-based approach to learning and overall development. Through this epoch-making partnership, Amity and Harrow will establish a chain of Harrow International Schools that will epitomise the very best that school education has to offer across the world.

Founded on Harrow’s unique traditions and educational approach, Amity will establish four new Harrow International Schools in India and one in New York. The school in India will open in 2023, while the school in New York will be operational from September 2024.

Harrow International School Bengaluru in India and Harrow International School New York in the USA will be launched as Residential and Day boarding co-educational schools.

Harrow International School Bengaluru, situated in a purpose-built 60-acre campus in Devanhilli and enjoying proximity to Bengaluru (formerly Bangalore) International Airport, will offer students aged 11 to 18 an education based on the National Curriculum for England and will prepare them for Cambridge International IGCSEs and the International Baccalaureate Diploma.
