@K.K.Reddy

I completely agree with your statement. School campus has nothing to do with education. Having infrastructure in acres and hi-tech luxurious facilities doesn’t really matter a lot for a kid in india who has to mix up with other indian kids. A/C Class rooms, A/C Buses? To me those are the least important things when I consider a school.Any management can be behind the school. But what matters finally is the principal and the staff who is imparting the education to the little ones. They should be the role models for the child.
Students may not interact with the the management folks and they even need not know who is the investor.

Thanks

But campus does not give education. There has to be education system, which is really lacking. I think school Principal should have a big role to run the school not the school management. NOT CEO or other Army persons.

hello, indus school have more cons than pros, i made a mistake to put my child in the school. firstly the education is not strong, children are happy there because they have a lot of sports and hobbies, etc but education is not good, i should i say the money we were paying was not worth it.
school bulding is nice all green , nice trees nobody can denied that but the education is very low. teachers are not professionals i should not say all of them but i know they put a counsellor as a math teacher and she didnt have the qualifications for that. Teacher are not happy either they are leaving the school too. Foreigners teacher leaving because the school adm lied to them and they are paying what they told them in the beginning , that i know because my friend was working there she were from spain and they promised her a ticket back to her country every year and then they told her no from the first year , they played with their words in the contract.
and so on.
i can not tell you which school is best but definetly indus is not in the list.

Thank you Mr. Swaminathan

I still would like to know, if any one has joined the kids for Boarding in Indus, and what would be the living conditions there, we are planning to stay in Jayanagar, which might be too far for the school. Please suggest.
Thank you.

This is in response to Sunita’s query. Please check my and anair’s comments which are recent ones (mine was posted abt 2 weeks ago).
We are both parents at Indus fm this year 2008-09.

As I hv stated earlier the school management is very friendly and quite responsive to queries etc., but some systems still need to be put in place.
Campusis better than any other I have seen in B’lore.
Sports need ot be beter organized, some teachers are new. Distance is a factor, but they have a big bus fleet. Bus trips last fm 1 hr to 20 mins depending on which part of B’lore u r located. Better if u r in the HSR layout, Outer Ring Road, Marathahalli, Koramangala area.

Hi,

We are planning a move from US and liked this school a lot when we went for a tour. All the comments I see here are more than a 1 year old. please let me know, if this is a good school for boarding or is day school is better. Also, if anyone know of a parent I can contact personally either email or phone number, who has kids going to this school, I really appreciate it.

Thanks in advance,
