Thanks to the advent of the internet, you are just a click away from information. Why don’t you visit the websites of leading schools in your city? It is a given that most of them will have detailed websites. Go through the literature. What are the facilities that they have? What about their team strength?

Personal visit: Seeing is believing. There is nothing like visiting a school campus in person and judging things for yourselves. This gives you a chance to take a close look at the infrastructure. Check out the labs. Go to the library. Visit a few classrooms. Take a look at the sports and recreation facilities. Make small notes in a small pocket diary.

Speak to staff and teachers:

As a parent, your association with a school is bound to last for quite some years, especially if you are enrolling your child at a young age. This would automatically mean that you will be in touch with the staff and teachers at the school regularly. When visiting the school that you intend choosing for your kids, try speaking to a few of the staff members or teachers. This is to check out the ‘vibes’. Do they give you a patient hearing? Do they answer all your questions? Did they show you around the campus? Did you and your kid find it comfortable in the environment? Take into consideration all these factors.

Sports & recreational facilities:

We have all heard of the famous English adage, ‘All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy’. Yes, children are born to play and have fun. So, does the school have good facilities for sports and games? Do they have a good auditorium for hosting debates, quiz competitions, skits, etc? Remember, all these things contribute to developing the overall personality of kids, apart from their academics.

List of questions:

Before you go and talk to the admission counsellors of a school, based on all the research that you have done, have a list of questions ready with you. Clarify all your doubts, whether it is about academics, fees, transport facilities, etc. This will ensure that there is no room for any communication gap later on.

We hope the above information give you some clarity to choose the right school for your kid. Enquire, visit, clarify and proceed. Happy schooling!!
