International schools
Outside Mumbai, no Indian city has more established international schools than Bengaluru.
The best known, The International School Bangalore (TISB), is in Whitefield, next to Inventure Academy. Stonehill and Canadian International are in the north, and Harrow International School has opened in Devanahalli. Indus and Greenwood offer the full IB programme across the city. Apply 6 to 12 months ahead, because TISB and Stonehill often have waitlists.

02Healthcare
Hospitals and doctors
Bengaluru has one of India's fullest networks of large specialist hospitals.
Manipal, Apollo, Fortis, Narayana Health City, Aster CMI and Sakra World each serve their own part of the city. Most hospitals below hold NABH (India's hospital accreditation) or JCI (the international one). All have English-speaking teams, and most run a desk for international patients. Check your insurer's network early, so cashless treatment works from day one.
