Former member 2012-03-07 08:43:31

hi desperately looking for reviews on this school...

i went to the school, infrastructure is alright. big play ground, the staff was friendly and helpful, but could not meet any teachers or students....

if u have kids studying there or if you know somebody whos children are there, please do help....

1. hows the standard of the school overall? studies, crowd, teachers?

2. do they encourage student teacher interaction? and parent teacher interaction?or do they follow very old school method?

3. do they have extra curriculars, interschool competitions etc.?

4. most importantly are the children who study there happy?

thanks so much in advance....

Hi jyothi,

we have been reading through this discussion and after visiting the school, liked what we saw. However we didn't get to meet any students or teachers.

We wanted to know how come admissions are still open? Is it because the kids in this school have not been accepted in other schools/ were late for the admission procedure... Are most of the students from lower income families and so it doesn't attract the crowd other Christian schools otherwise do, especially since it is so close to resurrection parish?

if anyone has put their child at fuscos it'd be great if you could reply.

thanks

Hi,

The school is good...Atleast we r very happy...the truth is last year when we moved to blore, we had missed the admissions in all the so called good schools....so we had admitted my elder daughter in Fusco's (coz fees was less and it didnt make sense to pay huge admission fee) thinking that this year we'll apply in better schools....

However, we are so happy with the school....(even then we did go to other schools during admission time....and the attitude of the staff and administration was such a let down.....finally when me and my husband sat down to discuss as to why we were changing her to a new school, we realised, we r getting the same education for a much lesser fees....!! the rest of the stuff didnt matter!!! after all school is for edn right? )

its a very down to earth school...they dont do or have any hi fi flashy system...like pools, skating, computer screen for blackboard etc....the teachers are really good...they really care about the children....the principal knows the names of all the students...the PT sir reminded me of my school times (ex army), strict but keeps an eye out for all kids....staff is very friendly...u can call anytime and they'll help u out...teachers are very good..

yes, they are strict where discipline is concerned...and study wise, they have a test almost every month and lots of homework.....however, before any test the teachers make sure they revise everything in school itself...and i really havent had to run behind my kid to teach her....so thats ok...

even i too wonder why the school is not advertised...but what ive heard is that they are funded by the church and its only through word of mouth... we have all kinds of kids there...from real lower middle class to upper too....(when we went for the annual day we got to see a lot of parents and the vehicles they came in )

we have pulled out our second daughter from a well known mont..and we have admitted her to fusco.....now she's very different from my elder daughter...so we too are waiting to see how she'll adjust here.....we too have crossed our fingers

jyothiabhimanyu, is it possible to talk to you ? Myself and my wife have questions on this school, but we really wanted to talk to you in details on this. My email address: sauvikc@gmail.com

Somehow the problems/concerns are so similar from a parent point, that I had to send you a friend request to know more on this school.

Please respond.

Cathy 2013-11-07 20:24:30

Thanks jyothi. That was helpful. I'm looking at fuscos as one of the schools for my son. Anyone else have feedback on this school?

mtgh0102 2014-02-13 15:23:48

Thanks Jyothi. Considering admission for my son in Fusco's (in LKG)....just wondering if it would be possible to speak to you regarding the school............had visited the school once bit couldn't speak to any students or parents.....my email address: moumita.ghoshrc@gmail.com

An early response would be highly appreciated........

Former member 2014-02-14 08:22:33

Hi Moumita,
my email id is jyothi_vijayakumar@yahoo.co.in...... Its a good school but be prepared for academics...and work load even for lkg...It was a big shock to me as well!!! :) but im happy since my kids are happy there..

renny2077 2014-06-24 17:47:30

Stay far away from this school. I made the mistake of putting my child in LKG. However, from day one, they kept sending pages and pages of homework (4-5 pages of homework per day). Hardly anything is done in class. Emphasis on exam and and finishing portions before exam date and that too for an LKG student. We have complained to the principal but no use. They won't let you meet the teachers. For exams, the child scores good grades but you know that the teacher is helping out. By the 3rd term, the child was to learn big word like umbrella and elephant and write 1-20 in words. We don't understand their teaching strategy and the teachers never explain anything in the diary. We also had experience of teachers hitting our child such that he was afraid to go to school I suspect the teachers employed in this school are not skilled professionals, just available for low salary. If you value your child's education, do not send your child to this school.

I completely agree with renny2077. this is a school of old thought. I did a mistake by admiting my son in this school. I am raising all sorts of concerns to the school principal on day to day basis.
