Her parents believe that Apeejay School is like a second home for Ayanna

Both Gaurav Satya and his wife Sudeshna Satya, resident of Noida, are working with Indian Oil Corporation Ltd as Senior Manager. Their daughter Ayanna (10) is studying in Class 5 at Apeejay School, Noida..

Why did you choose Apeejay School, Noida?
One of the reasons for selecting the school is that Apeejay provides holistic development opportunities. There are certain schools that are oriented to either academics or extra-curricular activities. But from the feedback we got from our acquaintances, Apeejay Noida is the best possible choice as far as Noida schools are concerned.

Is Ayanna happy studying here?
Yes!!! She is more than happy. She never felt uncomfortable here. I would like to mention that we have a transferable job. So in 2018, she got admission in the mid – session. But she never felt uncomfortable. Her class teacher, batch mates have provided so much support that she came out of that fear of being unaccepted. The care and atmosphere created by the teachers was wonderful. This core value is imbibed in every student of the school. Therefore, this school is very special to us.

Any progress you see in her personality after she changed schools?
Ayanna is an orator. She always participates in all the competitions related to speech, role play, and drama. This is a development that I notice in her only because of the opportunity that Apeejay has given her. They gave her excellent exposure.. I hope when she goes to higher classes, she represents her school for inter school oratory competitions. These competitions boost a child’s personality.

What do you like the most in Apeejay School?
Teachers at Apeejay encourage the child to speak out. There are cases when the atmosphere at home is not conducive even then we have seen that teachers mould their questions, to bring confidence to the child. We are truly fortunate to be associated with Apeejay school.

Your experience as a parent?
A Child’s security is one of the prime concerns of each parent. Due to the pandemic, classes are online and Ayanna is home. But during her two years of studies at Apeejay when she attended the school, I never felt any concern for her safety. Both of us are working and we never used to be at home even after she returns from school. Handing over the child to the caretaker is not easy. When Apeejay gave the contract of the transport, they briefed the transport agencies that the child’s security is of utmost importance. That’s why we are never worried. These aspects of Apeejay are the ones that every parent would want from a school.

“During the pandemic, the way the teachers and the school devised and executed the online teaching modules surely has been exemplary“
