Schools in Kharghar: 13 by sector, and the flats nearby

Picture a school morning about a year from now. Your child is three, the bag is packed, and the bus is due at your gate. How long is that ride, and who waits with your child at the gate?

The flat you choose now quietly decides every one of those mornings.

I won’t rank schools for you. I’ll show you which school sits in which sector, and which homes share it.

The short answer: pick the school first, then the flats in its sector. And if the flat isn’t ready, school starts from where you live today.

Twelve of the 13 Kharghar schools we checked sit between Sectors 4 and 21

Twelve of the 13 schools below sit between Sector 4 and Sector 21. One is up in Sector 35G. We checked each one on 1 Nov 2026.

These are the 13 whose board and sector we could confirm. It isn’t every school in Kharghar: one directory lists 35.

A word on boards. CBSE is the central government’s board. ICSE is the board of a national council called CISCE. ISC is its Class 11 and 12 course. IGCSE is Cambridge’s course. State board means Maharashtra’s own exams.

School	Board	Classes	Sector
Bal Bharati Public School	CBSE	Nursery to 12	Sector 4
Harmony International School	Cambridge IGCSE	Nursery to 10	Sector 5
Radcliffe School	CBSE	Nursery to 12	Sector 8
Ryan International School	ICSE and ISC	Nursery to 12	Sector 11
Ryan Global School	Cambridge IGCSE	Class 1 to 12	Sector 11
Greenfingers Global School	CBSE	Nursery to 12	Sector 12
DAV International School	CBSE	Nursery to 12	Sector 15
VIBGYOR High	CBSE	Playschool to 12	Sector 15
KPC English High School	State board	Toddler to 10	Sector 16
Ramsheth Thakur Public School	CBSE	Nursery to 12	Sector 19
Vishwajyot High School	ICSE	Playgroup to 12	Sector 20
Apeejay School	CBSE	Nursery to 12	Sector 21
Empyrean School	CBSE	Nursery to 12	Sector 35G

Only 17 of the 78 Kharghar homes we’ve checked share an exact sector with these schools

We’ve checked 78 Kharghar homes. Only 17 share an exact sector with a school above.

Sector	School there	Homes we’ve checked in that sector
Sector 11	Ryan International (ICSE), Ryan Global (IGCSE)	Shreeji Aura, Hitech Cosmos, Platinum The Reserve, Pote Pallacio, Shreeji Estrella, Uma Ananta
Sector 12	Greenfingers (CBSE)	Kasturi Regius Luxe, Kasturi Regius, Avenue Hills, Satyam Valencia
Sector 15	DAV International, VIBGYOR High (CBSE)	Elite Vivanta, Future Crystal Corner
Sector 16	KPC English High School (State board)	Skytech Neelkanth Avenue
Sector 19	Ramsheth Thakur Public School (CBSE)	Punit Imperia, Admire 19 The Pinnacle, Bhagwati Luxuria, Neelkamal Gokul

Four more homes are in Sector 35, but in blocks 35F and 35I, not Empyrean’s 35G. We haven’t counted them.

Got a budget near a crore? A typical Kharghar building starts at about ₹1.02 crore.

In these school sectors, 16 of the 17 homes start above that. Three, with the check for each:

• Sector 11: Shreeji Aura has a 1 BHK from ₹55.25 lakh, and 2 BHK flats from ₹91.8 lakh. On MahaRERA (the state’s official register of building projects), its completion month was June 2025. Check for an extension, and ask to see the OC (the certificate that says it’s safe to live in).
• Sector 19: Punit Imperia starts from ₹1.36 crore, with a MahaRERA completion month of July 2027.
• Sector 12: Kasturi Regius Luxe starts from ₹1.5 crore, with a MahaRERA completion month of December 2027.

Sector 34 has the most homes we’ve checked, and none of these schools

Sector 34 has 15 of the homes we’ve checked. None of the 13 schools is inside it.

That doesn’t mean no school is near. Each of our project pages names its nearest schools. On 14 of these 15 pages, that’s Mindseed Preschool in Sector 35 and two schools that aren’t in our table of 13.

So start from the school you want. Then ask if its bus comes to that society.

Several Kharghar schools already show 2027-28 nursery admissions

Joining nursery in June 2027? The notices have started, so you’ve time to read them calmly. Apeejay, Radcliffe and Vishwajyot showed 2027-28 admissions open on 1 Nov 2026.

DAV International’s nursery and Jr KG (junior kindergarten) notice, posted on 5 Oct 2026, says “opening soon”. VIBGYOR’s site takes enquiries for 2027-28.

Now the age rule. It changed in October. The state’s new order, reported by PTI, sets one cut-off date: your child must reach the minimum age by 30 June of that school year.

Nursery in June 2027: your child must turn three on or before 30 June 2027.

The other classes follow in later years:

• Jr KG at four, from 2028-29
• Sr KG (senior kindergarten) at five, from 2029-30
• Class 1 at six, from 2030-31

This is for new admissions. Children already in nursery to Class 1 this year aren’t covered, and nor are children moving up to the next class. School heads can also relax the limit by up to 15 days.

The report covers the state’s rule. It doesn’t say whether CBSE and ICSE schools must follow it, so ask the school.

Is your child’s birthday close to the line? The news reports don’t name the government order, so we can’t link it. Ask each school in writing: “Which cut-off date will you apply to nursery for 2027-28?”

A flat that isn’t ready yet means school starts from where you live now

This is the part most families miss. Many of these homes are still being built, and school won’t wait for the keys.

Here’s how the 17 homes in a school’s sector stand on MahaRERA:

• 12 show a completion month after nursery starts in June 2027.
• 2 show a month between now and then.
• 3 show a month that’s gone by, and their pages show no OC on record yet. Check MahaRERA for an extension, and ask for the OC.

Here’s an illustrative example, not a real family. Your child turns three in March 2027. You book a flat due in 2029. So for two years, school runs from the rented flat. After that, from the new one. Can one school do both?

If you rent in Kharghar, often it can, if its bus reaches both gates. Rent far away? Then you’ll change schools later, or choose a flat that’s ready. Our guide to Kharghar flat prices by the year you need the keys helps with that second choice.

Nursery fees differ a lot between Kharghar schools

School fees are a second monthly bill next to your EMI (the monthly loan payment). Even for nursery, they vary a lot.

VIBGYOR High₹9,300

Bal Bharati₹7,700

Vishwajyot₹6,500

Ryan International₹6,100

Greenfingers₹3,900

Ramsheth Thakur₹3,100

Between the highest and lowest of these six, the gap is about ₹6,200 a month.

Over a year, that’s about ₹74,000, before the school bus.

Some directory fees are old. Greenfingers has posted its own fee notice for 2027-28 and 2028-29. Ask every school for its fee sheet in writing.

What to ask the school and the builder before you book

The bus matters more than the map. Ask the school’s office:

• Bus: Does your bus stop at this society’s gate? What time is pickup, and what’s next year’s bus fee?
• Nearby families: Do you give any weight to living close? DAV’s nursery page sorts applicants into a “nearby” list and an “others” list.
• Board: Which board will my child’s class follow? Some campuses run more than one.
• Age: Which cut-off date are you using for 2027-28, and do you follow the state’s new rule?
• Fees: Can I have this year’s and next year’s fee sheet?
• Address: If our flat isn’t ready, will you accept our rent agreement as proof of address?

Then ask the builder or the society:

• Which gate will school buses use, and can a bus stop there safely?
• Which school buses already come to this building or the ones next to it?
• What’s the completion month on MahaRERA, and has it been extended?

Then drive the route yourself, flat to school gate, at bus time on a school day.

Who should pick the school first, and who can pick the flat first

“Kharghar is compact, so any sector is a short drive.” For some families it’s true. But you’ll make that trip most weekday mornings for ten years.

The simple rule: choose the school first, then the flats in its sector. Get the bus route to that gate in writing before you pay a booking amount.

Homes near your school past your budget? Our comparison of Kharghar and Panvel for a family walks through that trade-off.

How we checked: on 1 Nov 2026 we read all 78 Kharghar project-page addresses, counting exact sectors only. We don’t rank schools or hold travel times.

Pick two schools that suit your board and your mornings. Then let’s look at the homes in their sectors together. Your advisor’s name is on the form below. Ask them for the bus and completion-month check on anything you shortlist.

Questions buyers ask

Which CBSE schools are in Kharghar?

Of the 13 we checked, eight are on CBSE’s own register. The first table gives each one’s sector.

Which ICSE schools are in Kharghar?

Two of the 13, by their own websites: Ryan International (Sector 11) and Vishwajyot (Sector 20). One directory also lists VIBGYOR High under CISCE, the ICSE council. Its own site and CBSE’s register say CBSE, so ask which board your child’s class follows.

How old must my child be for nursery in 2027-28?

Three, on or before 30 June 2027, under the state’s October 2026 rule. A school head can relax the age limit by up to 15 days. Ask each school which date it’s using.

When do Kharghar schools open nursery admissions?

DAV International posted its 2027-28 nursery notice on 5 Oct 2026, and three others show admissions open. Check each school’s site for its own dates.

Is there an IB school in Kharghar?

We couldn’t confirm an IB (International Baccalaureate) programme at any Kharghar campus. Ask any school you find.
