Rahul, all the three are big time money oriented schools. Sachdeva has same reputation even in pitampura, and conventional academics only kind of school. Maxfort, lot of complaints from parents and other people about so many things which are not at all transparent. Presidium, they thought they will run the senior school also like play school which is no less than a marketing project for everyone including teachers. Now they are all messed up, the school is not catching up with people. They have to use so many schemes all the time to draw the people to their school. If you are just comparing the fee and thats your criteria, then it is your outlook. I am wondering how did you select all of same type.

@Soham

Thanks for your views on these 3 schools. My criteria for selecting these 3 schools was that they were the most talked about in terms of expensive schools. However, going to 2 of them, and also got chance to speak of 2-3 parents - the impression was expensive but the kind of individual attention your child get and the way activities are done, parents involvement etc was better than so many other schools. However, people were not sure if they plan to keep their kids in the same school after class 5 and beyond. So finally, i got little confused that even after spending money, which was much more than other schools, given a choice - how do people decide - what parameters can define these comparisons.

For higher education - we do a placement analysis, average salary (for B schools and engineering), exposure (more in medical), fee of the academic institution (govt. Vs Pvt.Vs. Corporate aligned like Amity and others ) etc   - but how about these Premium schools? So sought help from more experienced and learned people in this forum to help and understand this dynamics.

Will wait to hear more views.

As for mentioned amounts - these are total costs involving fee, transport, meals, books, uniform and a small misc.
