Schools in/near Tambaram

Hi Ajaya,
Welcome to the forum, and also welcome to Tambaram. We are living in Camp Road East Tambaram. You have lots of schools in and around Tambaram. But most schools have closed their admission. What kind of sylabus you are looking for? CBSE or Matriculation? Where exactly you are planning to be in Tambaram. If you could give me those details I could be of even more help to you.

As of now CBSE Schools:

1. Kendriya Vidhyalaya(where they have just 2 seats for open quota high competition)

2. Vivekananda Vidhyalaya

3. Boaz

Matriculation Schools:
1. Shankara Vidhyalaya

2. SitaDevi Garodia

3. Zion Matriculation

4. Alpha Matriculation

5. Prince Shri Venkateshwara

 

Hi,
Both Zion and Sankara are equally good. But I am bit apprehensive about Matric syllabus so we have put our daughter in CBSE. She is going to first standard this year. As for ICSE schools you have 2 schools one is the Campus School inside the MCC Campus and the other is Good Earth which is a bit far off though you have their school bus. That school is too good. But as far as my knowledge admissions are closed. But they might consider you as a special case. Good Earth school has a website also. Go to their site and take up their address and phone number. If you are unable to find it out let me know. I'll get it for you and send you a pm

 

Schools in or near Tambaram

Hi,

I need details on good CBSE schools in and near East Tambaram. Any school at commutable distance from East Tambaram is also ok. Are PSBB, Chettinad Vidyashram too far away? Schools that are mentioned as excellent all seem to be far away from Tambaram :-(
Please help at the earliest.

Re: Schools in or near Tambaram

Hi,
There is a school called" GOOD EARTH".Its located in East Tambaram for classes 1to 5 i think(not sure), but from classes 6 to 12 is located at naduveerapattu(sure), commutable distance from tambaram.

My nephew is studying there.Its a great school which follows CBSE pattern. No uniforms, just any simple cotton wear would do.

Will collect more details abt the address n post soon.

Hope this is useful.

 

Re: Schools in or near Tambaram

Hi Aishu,

Sorry to contradict with you. But the truth is Good Earth school is not located in East Tambaram. It is located near Kishkintha. Except the Kindergarten all are near Kishkintha. Not commutable from Tambaram easily. Moreover that area is West Tambaram.

It is not of CBSE pattern but it is of ICSE pattern. Of course no uniforms.

But yes there are some good CBSE schools in East Tambaram. There are two branches of Kendriya Vidhyalaya also.

You have BOAZ school on the Velachery Tambaram Mainroad in Sembakkam. Quite commutable from East Tambaram.

Another school is Sreevatsa Vivekananda Vidhyalaya located in Chitlapakkam. Though the address is Chitlapakkam it is quite easily walkable even from Camp Road junction. The walking time takes close to 15 mins. As my daughter is studying there I can give you a few more details too. The school is one of the branches of the Vivekananda Educational Trust. A lots of branches all over Chennai. Lots of extra curricular activities are encouraged. There is no exams till 2nd standard. And every month the parents have to meet all the teachers of their kid's class and discuss about their child's progress. If you want even more details please PM me. I feel I can guide you
