The Birla Public School, officially the Vidya Niketan Birla Public School, is a private primary and secondary boys' boarding school, located in Pilani, in the state of Rajasthan, India.

The school was founded by the Birla Educational Trust in 1944 as Shishu Mandir School and was later renamed as Vidya Niketan School, and is more commonly known as Birla Public School. The school was founded under the guidance of Dr. Maria Montessori, a famous pioneer in child education. The institution remained a day school until 1948. By 1952, the school was changed into a purely residential institution. In 1953, the school was granted the membership of the Indian Public School Conference.

Birla Public School recently conducted their 79th annual day followed by the VINOBA (Vinian Old Boys Association) meet.

The principal is Mrs Kajal Marwaha.
