The director of the school, Madhu Kohli, has retired and will be an adviser to the school.

Tulika Bindra will be the new vice-principal of South Point High School.

Work on the Mukundapur campus had been stalled since February 2024. Krishna Damani, administrator and treasurer of South Point School and South Point High School, was arrested in February last year for alleged financial fraud.

“No work was done during this period. We hope it will resume soon. External construction is complete. Installation of the elevator, electrical wiring and sanitary work are left,” said an official.
