Oxford School of Excellence (OSE), formerly known as Bala Hissar Academy (BHA) is a co-educational Day and Boarding School situated at 5 Municipal Road, Dehradun, Uttrakhand and is operated by Bala Hissar Academy Society, a non-profit Society. It was established on 18th July 1983 by Group. Capt. (Late) Sardar Amanullah and his wife Mrs. Humera Amanullah, upon his retirement from the Indian Air Force. The original name of Bala Hissar, which means “THE CITADEL AT THE TOP”, is derived from the historic fortress in Afghanistan, the ancestral home of the founders. Initially established as a primary school it grew rapidly and by 1988 had obtained full accreditation from the Council for the India School Certificate Examinations (CISCE), New Delhi. The school prepares students for the ICSE (class 10) and ISC (class 12) Examinations. English is the medium of instruction throughout the school but Hindi holds a place of every high importance in the curriculum and every effort is made to ensure that each student reaches a high standard in the language. A wide range of subjects is offered in the higher classes and students may join science, Commerce or Art streams. Students will find learning a pleasure during their stay at the school and will be assisted by the highly qualified and experienced teaching faculty. Late Mrs. Humera Amanullah, one of the founder members, devoted her life in the service of humanity especially the weak and needy. Not only was she intensely involved in the school but also in her continued endeavours to help the less-fortunate people in society. She was a strong advocate for the empowerment of the female child and sponsored a girls’ primary school in the village of Dhaki near Sahaspur. After the demise of the legendary Group Capt. Amanullah, his legacy is being carried forward by his son, Mr. Najib Amanullah. The school is situated in a leafy upscale residential district in the idyllic city of Dehradun. Very centrally located, the glorious garden township of Dalanwala, provides a tranquil setting for academic growth and holistic progress of students. The city of Dehradun is situated approximately 3,000 feet above sea level, in a lush valley between the Shivalik Range and the foothills of the Himalayas.... Read more

There is no good and bad school in my opinion . But as a parent if this school makes my kid happy it becomes the best school for me
Should work on how to communicate with young kids.
Decisions related to kids were always our family decisions. My in laws my parents me and my husband. This was the only school we all had a mutual liking so we are here.
If a school can support a child?s hobbies along with main stream curriculum it ought to be great one. Thats what I feel for this school.
