‘Extracurricular activities shape my child’s growing potential here’
Apeejay School, Noida, harnesses every child’s interests, says the mother of a student here
The school supports its students by creating a nurturing and engaging learning environment tailored to their developmental needs. “We chose Apeejay School, Noida, because my husband is an alumnus and has always spoken highly of the school’s values and academic culture. It is one of the strong CBSE options in Delhi-NCR, with a campus and infrastructure that stand out compared to most schools in the vicinity. The overall environment aligns well with our family’s value system and expectations from a school,” shares Megha Bansal, whose son, Kyaan, studies in Class II here.
Read on to know how the school fosters well-rounded growth and a positive attitude toward learning.
How are the teachers supporting primary kids?
The teachers are extremely kind, patient, and supportive. They are approachable and even remain available on the phone when needed. They focus not just on academics but on the overall growth and emotional well-being of the children, which we truly appreciate.
How are you handling his studies at home?
I teach him daily at home after coming back from the office. Along with revising what is done in school, he also prepares for and practices Olympiad-level concepts through self-study under my guidance. This routine helps reinforce concepts and builds good study discipline.
Which extracurricular activities boost his holistic growth?
He is highly interested in robotics, chess, and art. He learns robotics through the school’s SIC programme, while chess and art are pursued online. For physical development, he is taking private football coaching. Together, these activities support his cognitive, creative, and physical growth.
How are the safety protocols?
We truly appreciate the school’s safety protocols. There is clear awareness, strict implementation, and a zero-tolerance policy regarding bullying. The teachers are approachable, and the environment feels safe and well-monitored.
What are the strengths of this school?
The staff, both teaching and support, are warm, efficient, and dedicated. The Principal has brought refreshing initiatives that have strengthened the school environment. Events like Grandparents’ Day, A Day at School, and storytelling sessions by grandparents reflect the school’s strong family-oriented value system. We also appreciate the gentle yet effective approach followed by the teachers in guiding the children.
