‘Apeejay School, Noida fosters excellence,’ says this parent
Mrs. Namita Jain shares how the school has nurtured her son Atharv’s academic and extracurricular development, with unwavering support from dedicated teachers.
Mrs. Namita Jain, mother of Atharv Jain, a class 5 student at Apeejay School, Noida, shares insightful details about her son’s development since joining the school. From Atharv’s love for Sports and Astronomy to the never ending support of the teachers, she highlights what all it takes to help a young child blossom. Edited excerpts:
Ma’am, Atharv just got promoted to class 5?
Yes, now he is in Class 5.And he had a splendid year of growth and fun!
How has his progress been in the past year?
It has been good overall. Academically, I feel there’s something missing, but I can’t quite put my finger on it. However, he enjoys all subjects—except Hindi. I think many students find Hindi a bit challenging.
What do you think about the teachers at Apeejay School, Noida?
The teachers are fantastic! His class teacher was truly exceptional. I have never met a more dedicated and helpful teacher. She was always available whenever I needed guidance, and her support made a huge difference. I could call her anytime, and she would always help, no matter what the issue was.
How is Atharv’s extracurricular progress?
It’s going really well! He enjoys various activities and was a part of Sports Guru, a special paid sports program offered by the school. Earlier, in Class 3, he was also part of an astronomy course under the SIP (Special Interest Programme), which he absolutely loved. While he didn’t pick another SIP activity in Class 4, he continues to enjoy basketball and other physical activities.
What new developments have you seen in him over time?
Atharv is an incredibly disciplined child. In fact, his class teacher mentioned that he is the most disciplined student in the class. He is responsible, well-behaved, and continues to grow into a bright and curious learner.
What’s your opinion about the school environment—its teachers, staff, and leadership?
Apeejay School, Noida has a wonderful atmosphere. One thing that stands out is how accessible the teachers are. I have heard from parents of students in other schools that PTMs (Parent-Teacher Meetings) are infrequent and communication with teachers is limited. But at Apeejay School, Noida, it’s completely different. The teachers are always available, ensuring a strong connection between students, parents, and educators. It truly feels like a team effort.
