Why did you choose Apeejay for admission?
I chose Apeejay School for Swarada’s admission because of its excellent reputation for academic excellence and holistic development. The school’s curriculum is well-rounded, focusing not only on academics but also on extracurricular activities, which I believe is essential for my child’s overall growth. The positive feedback from other parents and the school’s commitment to fostering a supportive and inclusive community also played a significant role in my decision.

I find the teachers in this school to be highly dedicated and knowledgeable. They are committed to providing quality education and fostering a positive learning environment for the students. The teachers are approachable and always willing to help students with their academic and personal growth. Their passion for teaching and their ability to engage students in the learning process makes a difference.

How are the school infrastructure and facilities?
The school infrastructure and facilities are top-notch, providing a conducive environment for learning and development.

She is also fond of sports and was part of the Ruby House football team. The school also encourages CAPA activities for the holistic development of the child as per their interest. Swarada was part of the Public Speaking group last year and I can observe elevation in the appearance and body language while presenting.
