The School was established on 9 April 1979, under the kind patronage of Maharaja Amarinder Singh of Patiala , the son of Maharajdhiraj Yadavindra Singh of Patiala , who was the founder of Yadavindra Public School, Patiala. The school is spread over 20 acres (81,000 m2) of lush green land in a calm, pleasant and pollution free environment. The surroundings are picturesque and ideal for an educational institution.

(Indian School Certification is the only qualification from India that has been granted this special recognition). The school offers both boarding and day-boarding facilities.
The school is a non profit institution. All the profits are ploughed back to develop the infrastructure. The school is equipped with computers in every classroom. The overall personality of the students is catered to. Sports like squash, soccer, hockey, cricket, tennis, etc. are offered. Sports are a compulsory part of the curriculum.
