1Hai,
I would like to know some reviews from parents who’s children are already put up in Bishop Cotton Boys. My kid is in PreKG now. I am planning to put him in Bishop from LKG. I know it is a reputed school, but still would like to know from the parents. I am put in Sarjapura signal, that the only reason I am steping back as it is too far. But still if the school is really good and has bus facilities then I don’t mind. Please give me suggestions.

13@dr.swetha
Your child would complete 3 y 3 months by june 2010. So to my knowledge eligible for Nursery ( In any school following Kindergarten).
Also that is the right age for Nursery and not for LKG.
@Madhu,
Yes, your child should start LKG in the academic year 2010. 3 yrs 11 Month is too old to be in Nursey and 4 Yrs 11 Months is too old to be in LKG. Also if you wait for 2011 your child will loose 1 year and the kid will be in 1st std when 6 years 11 Months which is one month less to 7 Years and is overage. Pls check with other schools too. Some schools don’t really care about 1 month difference.
Thanks.
