It is very important to look at factors like infrastructure, the caliber of the teachers, the reputation the school enjoys, and the school environment while selecting the right school for your child. Knowing about the curriculum of the school, its history of academic excellence, and its prospects have a huge impact on the overall growth of the student. A reputable school is more likely to have a well-established network with industries, educational institutes, and universities making it easy for the student to transition there.

Keeping these things in mind, Arsh Ralhan, father of Saanvi Ralhan, studying in class VII in Apeejay School, Mahavir Marg made a calculated decision to choose this school for his daughter. The fact that he is himself an alumnus of this school made it easy for him to make the decision. In a candid interview, the father expressed his deep satisfaction with this school; praising its merits and highlighting a positive learning experience.

What were the factors that helped you choose this school for your daughter?

Being an alumnus of this school, I always wanted my children to study in the same school. But times change. However, I am happy that Apeejay’s reputation has only grown over the years. Also, a lot of kids in my extended family went to this school, and after witnessing their remarkable progress, I decided to enroll my daughter here as well. 

How has been her experience at this school so far?

My daughter’s experience at this school has been excellent. She is doing quite well academically and has never really faced any issues at school.

Is she active in any extracurricular activities?

My daughter remains highly enthusiastic about sports, with a particular passion for badminton. She also holds a keen interest in dance, showcasing a well-rounded engagement in both physical and artistic pursuits.

Does the school keep you well-informed about the upcoming events?

Yes. The school makes sure to circulate the right information about any upcoming events through WhatsApp groups made by the class in charge. To keep a close check on the academic progress, my wife primarily takes care of all the PTMs and attends them regularly. Moreover, Saanvi’s feedback has been consistently positive only.

How do you help her study at her home?

Given my busy schedule at the office, Saanvi’s mother usually takes care of all her study aspects at home. From helping to complete her homework to making her study a particular subject, my wife keeps a full check. 

How do you spend quality time with Saanvi?

As mentioned above, I am usually occupied with office work on weekdays but on weekends I dedicate special time to my daughter. We engage in different activities like indoor games, and outings, and at times, we also play badminton. 

What do you appreciate the most about this school?

The teaching staff is excellent at this school. The teaching methodology that Apeejay School follows is very unique. I am super satisfied with the curriculum and the way teachers teach here.
