It has a total of 1,253 schools in India, and three abroad in Kathmandu, Moscow and Tehran. It is one of the world's largest chains of schools and also the largest chain of schools in India is controlled by 25 Regional Offices and 05 ZIETs (Zonal Institute of Education and Training) under KVS (HQ).

The KVS follows the vision of "imparting knowledge/values and nurturing the talent, enthusiasm and creativity of the students and for seeking excellence through high-quality educational endeavours.
