This parent chose Apeejay School, Nerul, because of its strong reputation for academics, discipline, and overall personality development. Seeing how the school provided a safe, positive and growth-orientated environment for her elder daughter, the parents decided to enrol their younger one here as well. Meet Sarita Tripathi, whose daughters Kashvi Pramod (Class IV) and Kirti Pramod (Class XII) are studying here.
In an impromptu interview, the parent said, “Seeing Kirti’s development and confidence gave us complete trust in continuing the same journey for Kashvi as well.”
How has Apeejay School supported your children?
It has supported both my daughters in ways that are appropriate to their age and academic needs. For Kashvi, the school creates a nurturing and engaging environment where learning is enjoyable and interactive. The focus is not only on academics but also on curiosity, creativity, and confidence-building.
For Kirti, the support has been more focused on academic excellence, career guidance, discipline, and emotional preparedness for future challenges. The teachers continuously mentor students, help them manage pressure, and encourage independent thinking. I truly appreciate how the school adapts its approach according to each child’s stage of growth.
What positive changes have you noticed in your children over the years at the school?
One of the biggest positive changes I have noticed is the growth in confidence and communication skills in both my daughters. Kirti has become more responsible, focused, and self-disciplined over the years. She has developed leadership qualities and is now more confident in expressing her ideas and taking initiative.
In Kashvi’s case, I have seen her become more curious, expressive, and enthusiastic about learning. She enjoys participating in activities and has developed good social skills and teamwork abilities. The school has played a major role in shaping both their personalities positively.
How does the school balance academics with extracurricular growth for both age groups?
The school maintains an excellent balance between academics and extracurricular activities. Along with strong academic learning, students are encouraged to participate in sports, cultural events, competitions, art, music, and various co-curricular activities. For Kashvi, these activities help in overall personality development and make learning enjoyable. For Kirti, extracurricular opportunities help reduce stress, improve leadership skills, and build confidence.
What do your children enjoy most about their experience at Apeejay School, Nerul?
Both my daughters genuinely enjoy going to school, which itself speaks volumes about the environment there. Kashvi especially enjoys the interactive classroom activities, celebrations, and the caring nature of her teachers.
How have the teachers contributed to your children’s confidence and learning journey?
The teachers have been extremely supportive and approachable throughout my daughters’ journey. They focus on academic performance and pay attention to each child’s emotional and personal development. The constant encouragement from teachers has had a very positive impact on both my daughters.
In what ways has the school helped prepare your Class XII child for future goals and aspirations?
The school also encourages students to think independently, handle responsibilities, and develop confidence in decision-making. These qualities are extremely important as students prepare for higher education and future careers. I feel the school has helped her become academically prepared as well as emotionally mature for the next phase of life.
How does the school ensure Kashvi feels encouraged and engaged in learning?
The school creates a very positive and child-friendly environment for younger students. Learning is made interactive through activities, projects, storytelling, group participation, and creative methods that keep children engaged and excited.
