Excellent school which meets all the necessities of student. Be it educational, sports, co-curricular activities. Management is quite transparent and very supportive. Teaching and non teaching staffs are exceptional.
I am extremely proud of my child as not just academics, the achievements go beyond that. Sports and dance were two main concerns and my kid is excelling in both.
