if you really like KPS/Amity more and are sure your ward will get through then give a go to APJ. On the grounds all the three schools are more or less same with Amity/APJ having more brand name than KPS which reflects in their fees too. In case of doubt you can block your seat in APJ but it will come at a cost. Also all the schools are fairly good and I personally think you should go ahead with APJ leaving others so that other parents can go on with more probabilities.

Congrats for APJ :)

Hi Aditya

Thanks. I am not sure whether she will get through KPS or Amity or not but for Apeejay teacher and student ratio is quite high so I am in dilemma

Aditya

in APJ its 50:1 and in Amity its 35 students in a class and in one class there is a main teacher, a co-teacher and a maid and in KPS its around 30:1

No 50:1 is an inflated figure I know coz my kid is going there. In Amity I remember there are around 40 students per class which should same in Khaitan. If Khaitan is having 30 kids in a class then it's better.

Student teacher ratio in all these schools is almost same i.e. around 1:40-45. In APJ they have 2 teachers for a class of 45 so it's not that bad and I guess it's same for all traditional schools.

I asked a teacher of APJ and a parent of APJ kid and both confirmed me its 50:1.....though tomorrow I m going to school to pick the admission letter then will cross check..Thanks Aditya for helping with the ratio

Sampurna,

Actually this is what I am telling you from my experience last year. Even someone told me it's 60:1 and I was quite worried.But I think such ratios used to be there in past when they do not have much face-off with Amity/KPS/FAS etc. But anyways you can always derive this from a simple logic, Lotus Valley and other new age schools are roughly charging double but there total strength is less and ratio is around 1:20-25. So equation will always be same in all traditional schools. After all they all keep their profits on priority :)

Also people used to talk a lot on creepy bus service in APJ but its not bad and they do have a staff, maid, guard in bus.

Anyways Good Luck. For APJ I am sure of this ratio in nursery as my kid is going there.

Baaki I will sugest you better confirm with school, it may be possible thats ratio is high in senior sections but am sure its same almost everywhere.

Best of Luck.
