Re: PSBB Millenium OMR school review Hi I don't know about OMR branch in particular, but I hear many negative feedbacks about PSBBmillineum school. They are still experimenting with many things and seem to be unsettled yet. They mess up a lot at the cost of the parents. Shifted the school campus from GST road to Porur (from 5th std) which caused inconvenience to many parents, who were forced to shift their houses to different areas for easy access to school. The school fees and transportation fees in particular are very high compared to other schools, doesn't seem to justify it in educational standard they are providing. My neighbours kid is studying there, if you see his subject notebooks, you have to do so many corrections in it. There are so many mistakes in a page, where the teacher had just put a tick mark and had signed. The transportation department is the worst. The department head's attitude is shocking. He plainly says "if you want to send your kid in the school bus,send, otherwise I don't care. I have so many applicants for the bus" Ball is in his court, once you pay the fees and take the admission what choice have you got? My neighbours kid is getting into the bus at 6.15a.m everyday to school which is just 6 to 7 km away from the house, not getting adequate sleep also.So many years of hardwork, name and fame of Mrs.YGP is easily getting spoiled because of this Institution. Talk to some parents who are sending children to that school before deciding, that might save a lot of your future tension and money. Sakthicharan
Hi Venma, Out of three options you are planning Chennai Public School is the best. Other than these schools you can also find out about Jawahar Vidyalaya, Ashoknagar.
good luck. NO schools in India can be like any schools in usa. they only ask for high fees and tehir standards are very low...kids deserve a lot better than this

Maharishi vidya mandir - heard that it's a good school. they teach more slokas and prayers it seems, being a muslim , i am not interested. But it's a good school. i too don't know abt the criteria recommentations etcc... ILites pls help us - tell us if u know the criteria on which these schools select the children. i am a working mother - do they reject my application because of this reason???????????????
Schools in Adambakkam Hi Shanthi, It is really GREAT to see you having all details in your fingertips. I have been a silent reader of all the threads so far. And now, we are coming back to chennai in few months. We have our home in Adambakkam and my son is 2 yrs, 4 months by today. So, I am looking for schools to join him in Pre-KG from 2010 mid. So far, I could see v.few good schools near our home. 1) DAV adambakkam - my relative kids go here - since the kids are v.bright and always get 1st rank, their parents are happy with the school. But looking at their books, i know its v.tough for an average student- so, I am not completely OK for putting my son in that school. 2) DAV velacherry - from the forum, I get the feeling that many people do not like this school. 3) Britto academy - Only from your input, I feel the school is good. 4) Kendriya Vidyalaya (near Palavanthangal railway station) - How is this school? Are they good?. I heard getting a seat here is difficult. Other than these 4 schools, I do not hear any good CBSE schools near adambakkam area. Am I right? Rightnow, I feel more towards SBA, since your kids are also studying there. I want to know , 1) how strict they are? And also, 2) how about extracurricular activities? I want my son to be involved in dancing, drawing, sports etc. Does this school encourage all these? 3) And do the kids talk in English? I dont want my son to study in a school where people talk in tamil....I heard schools like DAV adambakkam, do not encourage any cultural activities(dancing etc) in their annual day - I do not like these things. I want my son to have all fun as I had in my childhood. 4) How is their annual day celebrated?Do they have fun? I know, I ask too many questions....but I know you are the right person to answer all these as you have 2 kids in that school. Can you please enlighten me with your reply. THANKS A LOT for your patience & help. -Anitha.
