Hunting for good school for your darling? I know it can be not just stressful, it becomes very confusing with hundreds of schools in Pune!
Let me help you out my dear parents.
Follow me each week right here and get to know about each school little better than what you know now.
To begin with how should you select a school for your child? What are the factors which a parent must look for in any school before giving it a green signal?
Each of us has various factors and priorities, which you should sit and analyze with your better half.
You can make a simple table with the following factors and then rank them in the order of the priority that suits you. Since there is no right and wrong in ranking them, I will only suggest how I ranked these factors for my kids. I am also giving my reasons here in the table against each factor which might differ than yours.
Fixed factors are those which will not or should not change in future.
Changeable factors will change.
Once you are done with this list, you will find it’s not as difficult or confusing to select the school in your area or city.
Next week I will assess DPS Delhi Public School for your benefit and provide you with as much details about the admission dates, procedures, criteria for selection based on my personal experience.
These are all suggestions and any parent reading them should remember to make best of these to take any decision.

Dear Madhurie,
Pls guide. Im really very very confused. Since last 1yr Im net surfing many school sites to select best school for my daughter. I put my baby in Eurokids-playgroup when she was just 18 months old (she use to cry a lot for gng to school. Thereafter she was promoted to higher classes as her performance was gud. Now, she is LKG n her age is 3.10 months (4yrs in Jan-2010). I will repeat her in LKG to make her base strong and otherwise also no school admits underage kids.
I stay near Aundh and my office is at Off senapati Bapat Rd. I had zeroed down to Vikhe PAtil School. But also got to know dat they are not strict on english communication but otherwise school is THE BEST. Im little confused.
Even in ur site, majority of parents talked of St.Mary’s. Can u pls guide me which school will be best suited for my daughter. My expectations fm school is dat it sd concentrate on overall development and not just studies (which I guess St. Mary are too much into producing 90% + kids)at the same time good English communications and desciplin.
Pls give some insights on Vikhe PAtil school. Is this d best bet after St. MAry’s. I was also considering Vidhya VAlley but got bad reviews frm friends.
Pls guide me at the earliest so that I can make correct decision before the admission time starts.
Thanks & regards
LUX.
