How to select the right school for your child? State syllabus or ICSE or CBSE,...

Remember every child doesnot need the same care, facilities and support.So, be aware and choose your child's school, syllabus and environment accordingly.

1. Syllabus - ICSE or CBSE or IB. Rather than your strong opinions, see how suitable it will be for your child, how it helps children to fare in competitive exams in future.

2. School environment, teachers, admission procedures, kind of children/peers who study in the school, their cultural and  monetary backgrounds - all these matters in framing your children's attitude and personality.Be careful about this.

3. Talk to school going children's parents, how a typical school day goes, before you take admission.

4. Parents normally engage their children on different coaching and training classes for dance, tennis, badminton, cricket, other sports etc. This should take care, if your school does not have enough space for sports and would have their focus on academics. Check this anyway and how it suits you.

5. For any franchisee playschools, teachers and principal/franchisee pedigree and commitment should be the criteria , rather than just the chain name like eurokids, zeekids etc. Do personally visit, talk to few parents, how a typical school day goes before you take admission.

6. Incase of relocation, check more about each of the school shortlisted by you, before you come to Bangalore itself, in the net.(Use specific search in google with their name)

7. Take appointment and see the principal personally by J&R and check for any vacancies.

8. In case of transfer, get a good school leaving certificate and reference from current school, assuming you would have to seek readmission there later if needed :)

9. Parent Teacher Association(PTA) may not exist in some schools, but normally it doesnot matter if professionally run. Do check this anyway.

10. Some schools, have heavy advertisements but their school buses are not disciplined and mostly would reach school after the school starts. Be warned of such schools! Check this factor too!

11. Some other schools, as heard from parents and read from internet that they take money but generally give receipts much later. Be warned and sort this out with other parents.

12. In some schools, where so many people throng the school and receptionist for admissions, they might come across sometimes rude to you! Never mind - be prepared and aware of the same! :)

Happy go lucky! Best wishes!

Why ICSE?

ICSE emphasizes on a holistic education, insisting on a child’s overall growth. Hence, it has a more balanced syllabus compared to CBSE. Vast and comprehensive in nature, ICSE syllabus is structured and aimed to give due importance to practical knowledge and analytical skills in students.

Students have flexibility of selecting subjects of their choice and study them in detail. Perhaps the biggest advantage enjoyed by the students of ICSE board is the competitive edge that they develop in English. Recognized by many foreign education systems, ICSE is also best suited for parents who might have to relocate to different countries.

Why Greenwood High?

Greenwood High is the recipient of the award for 2 categories:

"The Best ICSE School in Bangalore" and

"The Best International School in Bangalore"

I think these credentials speak a lot for the school, placing it among the best ICSE schools in North Bangalore.

The school has a holistic approach to education with expert tutelage, creative freedom and inspiring innovation. To ensure the best for your child, Greenwood High, a top ICSE board school, encourages an interactive student-teacher classroom environment to fuel your child's curiosity and get a better understanding of the syllabus. Interactive classrooms also make the child unafraid to speak their mind and present their views and doubts in a comprehensive manner.

State of the art infrastructure - well-equipped labs, expert guides and a comprehensive library to support and uplift your child's goals and ambitions by encouraging the practical application of the theories learnt in class as a part of the syllabus, making Greenwood High the best ICSE board school in Bangalore. Apart from that, they also feature top of the line sporting facilities within campus grounds to facilitate athletics and physical training for a healthy body and mind along with academics.

Another reason that makes Greenwood High the best International School in Bangalore is that the British Safety Council of the United Kingdom’ has also audited the school on Covid19 safety precautions. This Certification involved stringent screening of their executed safety measures with respect to the safety and health of Students & Staff, in the academic campus and the ancillary that children often use. The school has passed and met with their strict standards, so the safety of their students from covid19 is ensured.

To sum it all, there is no better syllabus structure recommended than ICSE and there is no better place to get it than Greenwood High.

There are various good schools situated in Bangalore. So, it is difficult for a parent to settle down for the best one. Schools of Bangalore offer excellent quality education and hands-on training that can help your child to land a good job in the future. Bangalore Schools are up for providing top-notch education that helps to get exposure to practical education. While admitting my son to his school 4 years back, I did research on the best schools in Bangalore.

Select the Board

My husband and I always wanted to provide an international standard of education to my boy. So, I started to gather more information on Bangalore International Schools. So, those who have the same plan as me can do thorough research in the same way. You can do google research by typing the best IGCSE schools in Bangalore.

Finalize the Locality

Those who want their child to admit to a school that is close to the home must think about the distance between the school and home at first. I personally didn’t want my child to travel a lot to reach school. So, I opted for the nearby school that is affiliated with the IB board. I think, in Bangalore nobody wants their kid to face traffic congestion.

Teacher Student Ratio

Top schools in Bangalore have a balanced teacher and student ratio. So, try considering this factor seriously before admitting your child to a school.

Value-Based Education

After home, school is the place where your kid will spend most of the time. So, make sure the best school as per your concern should teach the values to your child.

Fees of the School

The best schools in Bangalore usually charge a bit high. Remember, the school fee you are paying is an investment for the future of your child.
