vs
Gundecha,Lakshadham
Seek all parents advice having knowledge about the same ....
My preference is Cbeebies way of teaching kids....pls advise which school will have a tendnecy to teach in the Cbeebies mannne
Hi Jaivu,
I have exactly the same dilemma....where is Rustomjee situated? where do u stay?
My daughter is 2yr 7 months now and she would start nursery next year. Even I have Billabong in mind but am still confused since the distance would be too much.
Lokhandwala foundation school which is also ICSE board is closer to my house....but am seeking information on this board regarding CBSE/ICSE or IG/IB.
Hi
I stay in Thakur Village and my son goes to Gundecha. Its the best in the area. Its an ICSE board school. Method of teaching is the best I have seen so far. They dont burden a lot in nursery and Jr. KG but start building the base stronger from Sr. KG onwards. Its voted among the top 10 scools between thane to Andheri. Taeachers are really good. Limited chikdren in a class. More attention per student.
I attended an orientation session in the school on comparisions between ICSE and IG Boards and my assesment says if you arent moving abroad in the next few years then the IGCSE doesnt really add much value and tends to be expensive compared to the ICSE board.
But Gundecha is also coming up with the IGCSE board shortly within the same school.
Also if you are in Thakur Village this really saves up on your child's commuting time compared to the other options.
Hope the above was helpful.
Jaivu & Jayel,
I agree with Vinitarishi. Gundecha is very good school. My son goes to Gundecha, he is in play group & i like the school very much. I stay at Borivali (W) & i had struggled alot to get admission in this school. only because they don not allow students apart from thakur village. i am ready to travel for some time provided the school is good, with this view only i got him admitted to Gundecha.
You being in Village only, will save lot of time commuting. Secondly the good part is they do not take any donation for admission. they are very transparent that way so that gives you lot of trust in the management.
the admission for nursery already started so please check out as the forms for nursery admission were given on 24th Sep.

1. I am curious which are other schools
2. voting was done by whom?
I attended an orientation session in the school on comparisions between ICSE and IG Boards
Does Gundecha conduct such sessions each year?
Any idea when is it next?
Thanks a lot
Hi All
What is cut off criteria for Gundecha school? My kid is January 21st born and not eligible for admission who follows 31st December as cut off. Will he get admission there?
Thanks
hi dps,
my son is jan 29 born...plz do let me know if u find any solution to this admission problem,
thanx
Dear All,
I too agree that Gundesha is one of the best in kandivli (E). they have limited students in one class and fewer divisions. But that is b'coz they have limited infrastructure. the first preference is to the siblings and then to the residents of the Valley of flowers where its situated as that is part of their contract. So getting admission is difficult also there are schools like Thakur Public and Thakur international (which is in west) they are equally competetive with better infrastructure and extra curricular activities.
