Hi Ashima,

 

My son studies in Class I in Indus World School and has been there since Pre nursery. First of all I would like to emphasize that no school or institution is perfect in all aspects.  There are some areas where Indus might score lower than other schools and there are some areas where it might score much higher than other places. One has to see as a parent what areas do you emphasize on.

 The areas which me and my wife emphasize are openness and warmth in the school mentors. We found that in abundance in Indus World School. Second aspect is the room given for the child to see, explore and then learn and not become a "rattu tota" in his academics. IWS allows children to learn concepts through stories and activities which engage the child and not learn by rote. That is why we decided to put our child in IWS. 

Other aspects of having air conditioners in the school or jazzy offices or minor other things didn't count in our evaluation criteria.

Regards

Ankur

Hi Ashima, My daughter is now in KG and she joined indus from play group.What we noticed is she enjoys going to school & enviroment is very friendly which allow chindren to learn, think and explore.Mentors never put pressure on children & teaching method followed is very good. School always intract & involve parents in decision making process related academic area.So we felt Indus is a very good choice

Hi Ashima, My name is Aparna Puri and I have two children at Indus. I have moved from New Zealand a year and a half back and had a very clear view as to how I wanted my children educated. I was not in the favour of my children going to school because they have to and hating it. I found the atmosphere at Indus very relaxed. My son who joined year 4 did not know Hindi at all, but not once has he been under any pressure about it, we were not asked to take any extra coaching or teach him extensively at home so that he can match the other students. Inspite of coming from a different country and environment my children adjusted very well. Indus was exactly what I was looking for my children as the student are not under pressure but are guided to perform to the best of their ability and encouraged to do the best by tapping their creativity with the resources at their disposal at home, which is something. I am a happy Indus parent as my children are not only being educated in the subjects which they have to know but also in life skills. We as parents are involved with our children education through various workshops held and are encouraged to make meaningful contribution. I have yet to come across a more relaxed one to one parent and teacher contribution as I have seen in Indus.

My children are happy to go to school and I am happy sending them there and honestly I would not have made the big decision to make the move from New Zealand if I had not found Indus world school.

Hi Ashima,
I have both my sons in Indus and when we had to decide for the little one, we did not once think of any other school except Indus since we are very happy with the environment given to children in the school. My elder son, though with special needs, is treated at par with other children and given the proper care and attention required for his overall development. At Indus, it's not only the Mentors but the whole staff who are so good that your child feels quite at ease and fits in right from day one, of course the Mentors are really really innovative and creative in their approach towards modern day teaching and I think this will help my children to grow intellectually n creatively.
The interaction with school and the workshops held by the school for the parents are also a very nice concept and I definitely would recommend Indus to you.
It's a Happy school with Happy children.

Dear Ashima, Our son is now in Nursery at Indus World School and I'll be happy to share our feedback. We had a similar experience right from the first day where a mentor evaluated him, was very good to see how much attention was paid to the child and my wife and I had not written so much as we did in the form in a long time ;-). He's now been at the school for about six months and loves it! Especially his mentor, who we notice has taken a very keen interest in all the children and what they are good at with a view to encouraging them. For us the important things were that he be comfortable with the school environment and be encouraged to learn, think and explore, and as far as we are concerned the school has done a great job of doing just that! Certainly he's still very happy to go to school which we're very happy with... While the school is small it has a large heart and seems to be preparing him well for the world ahead....
