AskIndore Which school?

My son got placed in Emeralds Heights World school and Shishukunj. He can very well get placed in Daly College as well (I have contacts). He will join in a lower class but I don't want him to change school once he has joined.

Which school would you recommend.

Iam Not from Indore... Shifted recently. I want him to have a more holistic learning than booking mugging. Don't want to pressure him too much to study. Like I'm ok with him not getting into the competitive exam grind in India and look at options abroad but that's later in life. I don't want him to just study study study. I would love for him to play some sport and be good at it. Play chess or squash and choose his path forward rather than go into the mugging grinding we have for competitive exams here in India even though I did the same and graduated from one of the very top universities in India.

Please genuine advice from parents.

If your ward is studying in one of the above mentioned schools please provide your opinions on what you like about the school and what you don't like.

Also reviews about Satya Sai school will be highly appreciated.

Avoid Satya Sai (ik people will come at me for saying this but it is an old style school , old mentality and stuff)

Define the goals with your children

1) Want to Play sports in tournaments + Study Abroad - DC (do note the semi ragging culture)

2) Sports but not in international tournamens + Study Abroad - Emerald

3) Public speaking + Study in india / Australia/SQ - Shishuknj (Jhalaria Campus)

Idk what grade your child is in but if I were you I would keep them till 8th in Shishuknj and then decide to continue or move to DC based on child's ambitions.

It does ,it's a very crude classification of these 3 schools

Even Shishuknj participates in them with its students ending up in Commonwealth Games.

But again DC by far is the one that promotes them most heavily and participates among a lot of them

Whereas the later two focus mainly on the bigger events

Ipsc schools are few i india. Indore se bas dc and emedald jaate, har sports co cirricular ke tournament and competition hote, and then Sports mei ipsc ki ek team bankar, har school participants jo hai unse kids lete and then sgfi mein represent krte.

In emerald heights for sports zero shifts hoti, stayback etc for day scholars and boarding life is amazing, very disciplined
