School plays a vital role in supporting students as they transition into senior classes. “This school stood out as the right choice, offering the environment, guidance, and opportunities we desired for our child. It provided a balance of academics and personal growth, ensuring holistic development while nurturing confidence, curiosity, and a strong foundation for future learning and success,” shares Sunita Pal, whose daughter, Lavanya, studies in Class IX at Apeejay School, Rama Mandi.

Read on to know how the school encourages participation in co-curricular and creative activities, helping students explore their interests and talents.

What are your child’s plans?

She is still exploring. With senior classes comes a certain amount of pressure, but it remains manageable with proper routine, guidance, and support. She is focused on balancing academics with her interests, while gradually shaping her goals with clarity and confidence for the years ahead.

Which best practices do teachers use here?

Teachers here follow best practices by conducting regular assessments to track progress and ensure clarity. They maintain open communication, making students feel comfortable in expressing doubts. Many teachers also adapt their teaching methods according to the class’s needs, ensuring effective learning and engagement while nurturing confidence and academic growth.

Which infrastructure facilities are child-friendly?

The school provides essential facilities that support both learning and extracurricular activities, creating a balanced environment for children. Classrooms and activity spaces cater to students’ needs, encouraging participation. However, certain areas require better upkeep and maintenance to ensure an even more child-friendly atmosphere that enhances comfort, safety, and overall growth. The school maintains standard safety measures, including restricted entry and gate security. While these are functional and effective, there is always scope for improvement to ensure even greater safety and reassurance.

 What are her favourite extracurricular activities?

She actively participates in activities that capture her interest, with a focus on creative and academic pursuits. These engagements not only enhance her learning but also nurture her imagination, problem-solving skills, and confidence, helping her strike a balance between intellectual growth and self-expression in a supportive and encouraging environment.

How is your child’s progress so far?

She has shown consistency and a strong sense of responsibility, managing most things independently. We are pleased with her steady progress and the way she balances her commitments, demonstrating maturity, confidence, and the ability to handle challenges effectively while continuing to grow in both academics and personal development.
