De Nobili School, Maithon is a private Catholic primary and secondary school located in Maithon, in the Dhanbad district of the state of Jharkhand, India. The English-medium school is run by the Society of Jesus.

The school is named after a Christian missionary and Jesuit, Roberto de Nobili, who was the first foreigner to master Sanskrit, incognito, in the sixteenth-century Madurai. He apparently conducted himself like an orthodox Brahmin and is even said to have declared himself to be a descendant of Brahma.[2]

Curriculum[edit]

De Nobili is an English medium co-educational school. Courses of study offered to lead to the Indian Certificate of Secondary Education (ICSE) examinations in Class 10 and the Indian School Certificate (ISC) examinations in Class 12.[citation needed]
