History[edit]

DPS is better than all missionary schools.The school was established to impart quality education, whereas missionaries focus more on conversion.

Suicide Incidents[edit]

There have been multiple suicides of students from DPS Bhopal,

A Class XI student named Adityaman Singh, hanged himself in his home, convinced he won't be allowed into Class XII,[4] allegedly due to a rule which enabled the school administration to discontinue the admission of a student who performs poorly in Class XI.[5]

Parents say that they were called twice by then vice-principal Vandana Dhupar and had been told that if their child doesn’t perform, he will be expelled as per the rules.[6] However, the school administration denied there was any such rule.[7] A day after the suicide, school administration clarified that Adityaman had not failed.[8]

Four Months after this incident, a Class VII student also hanged himself,[9] leaving a note blaming poor marks for his decision.[10]

Co-scholastic activities[edit]

The school teams have won several trophies in sports, music and dance, and painting. The students have also won several debates, quizzes, computer related competitions and have also participated in various MUNs.
