A school is not merely a place for your child’s academic and personal development; it serves as their second home. If you are in the process of selecting the ideal school for your child, prioritising safety and security is of utmost importance. A secure school environment not only ensures your child’s physical well-being but also contributes to their emotional safety.

For this reason, Ankit Kohli, the father of Amaya Kohli, a nursery student at Apeejay School, Panchsheel Park, deliberately chose this institution for his child. In a candid interview, Kohli expresses high regard for the safe environment provided by Apeejay School. “My child can actively participate in social interactions and potentially form positive relationships with both peers and teachers in this secure setting,” Kohli said.

Excerpts from the interview.
