I am trying my best to provide as much information to all the parents by writing reviews in the most descriptive way to the recent objective fact based tabular format.
The descriptive story type reviews are my favorite and will continue to rule the site. Yet you will discover to your own surprise that when a school is rated objectively based on same facts the results are surprising.
I am adding new factors whenever possible. Some factors are not valid for a school and hence will be not included in the rating calculation. This school’s total points will be low, but must look at the percentage as that is what matters.
Till now DPS seems to be number one school as per the point system though I was myself surprised to see that it did not cross 70% and is Good school.
Ok now how do you use the ratings is important.
Like I keep repeating and reiterating that a school good for me may not be good for you.
I hope you have subscribed to my new articles and Do activate by clicking the link that you receive in your email
So how do you arrive at the school that is most suitable to you and your kid?
Copy the table shown below.
Write the 5 most important factors to you and your family.
Say Distance = 5, Brand = 4, Teachers = 3, Fee = 2, Activities = 1
Now write them in the respective cells under column Priority.
Here top priority will be highest number.
So if you have 5 factors, your top priority will get 5 points.
Next multiply the priority with my rating for the school.
For DPS I have written the totals under the column Total for DPS.
Repeat for all other schools.
Add the points for each school or compare factor wise, which school get maximum points.

I live in Kharadi area in PUNE and have been searching for a good school near this area. 2 of the schools nearby are Victorious Kidss Educare and Vibgyor High. Can you please post a review for both these schools. It will be really helpful.
My criterias are:

2. All round developement of child (not just bookworm)
3. Fairly good infrastructure. Nice playground in school
Please also suggest any school you would recommend.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Madhurie,
I am new to your page,but insightful truly!!!Thanks for the ready reckoner on schools…my daughter goes to IK Aundh and I totally conncet with your review ,they charge a bombshell considering the infrastructure however what they do to the kids, is way beyond books and the traditional way of learning so indeed parents dont mind shelling that!
I would be really grateful if you could review “Indira National School”,Wakad as couldnt find a detailed review on that and after IK it is a very sensible option,for us!
Thanks in advance,
Antara
