Influence
DTEA schools, or Madrasi schools as they are known in Delhi, have had a presence of their own in the national capital. For the vast colonies of Tamils, the network of schools under the DTEA have been a lifeline institution in the capital, providing quality affordable education.
These schools had provided quality education to countless south Indians in Delhi, particularly Tamils.
Over the years, given its record of performance in the Board exams, it has attracted students from other communities as well, particularly at the high school stage when Tamil is not a compulsory subject. The schools have helped bring education to poorer sections of the community.
