‘My daughter’s scholarly results are never possible without her teachers’
Apeejay School, Faridabad never puts any undue, unreasonable pressure on students, says the mother of a student here
Schools play a vital role in the holistic development of a child by focusing on various aspects beyond just academics. “This school provides opportunities for children to engage in arts, music, drama, and other creative activities. These programmes allow children to express themselves, explore their talents, and build confidence,” shares Shipra Sapra whose daughter Srishti studies in class IX at Apeejay School, Faridabad.
Read on to know how this school plays a crucial role in instilling moral and ethical values in children.
How has your daughter’s progress been at school so far?
My daughter has been studying here since class I and so far I am super satisfied and happy with the progress she has made.
How are the teachers here?
There was a time in between when I couldn’t pay much attention to my daughter due to a few personal issues. During that time, it was the teachers here who stood up for her unconditionally. A few teachers had gone out of their way to sort out my daughter’s problems in academics and other related adjustment issues. The teachers always kept communication open with me to gauge my daughter’s level of understanding and core weak areas to be worked upon.
It will be Boards next year, is there any stress or pressure building up?
My focus and biggest teaching to my children is to never burden them with high expectations of marks. I always advise them to study and perform to the best of their abilities. She plans to take PCM (non-medical) in class XI. Srishti would like to pursue engineering professionally in the future.
What kind of extracurricular activities does she enjoy here?
My daughter has a creative bent of mind and hence she enjoys everything related to art. At present, she is enjoying culinary classes at school and is even heading the student group.
Why did you choose Apeejay for admission?
We chose Apeejay for admission primarily because my husband is an alumnus of this school, and it was his wish for our children to attend the same school. The day Srishti got admitted was a momentous occasion for our family. We are extremely happy with this school.
