Harassment from school management

Hi Parents,

I have had heard a lot about RBK School being one of the best in Mira Bhayander locality. Since I had to choose a good school for my daughter, so I went ahead to scrutinize the finer details talking to parents whose wards are in RBK school and other schools in competition- Seven Square Academy, N. H. Dalmia school, NH Academy, SVP Vidyalaya Mira Road, US Ostwal School and Xavier's School.

In comparison to the mentioned school, RBK fares much better. The books selected have have good content to study and are at par with respective boards. The infrastructure is good. Extra-curricular activities are abundant and spread through out the year. School buses are timely and dependable.

Now the other aspects--
1. Education - Multiple teachers leave schools mid-term leaving students to study on their own until replacement arrives. On anonymity one of the teachers quitting admitted that she was temporary teacher and earned humbly low salaries as low as 6k (primary) and 9k (secondary). Teachers are made permanent only after 2 years of probation until which they would not like to wait as schools in borivali, Kandavali and Malad offer salary of around 20+k.
2. With not so qualified teachers (except the one who are already permanent), the education provided would certainly suffer. ICSE books are being taught the "SSC" way i.e. the teachers just provide notes (from previous years) and ask the students to mug up. This defeats the very purpose for which ICSE is preferred (at least for me) - "Providing a platform for independent thinking".
3. Fees - On comparison with other schools (Not extravagant ones like billabong or vibgyor), I found RBK to be slightly expensive. However, I do certainly agree that if you prefer Quality Education (among what is on offer within the limits of Mira-Bhayander), you have to pay. However, I would support those parents who have complained about the school profiting though mandatory purchase of exorbitantly high priced books, files etc which are available in market at much lower rate. In addition, the school keeps on collecting fees for various activities organized in school irrespective of the fact that the student participate in the activity or otherwise.
4. Buses - The buses are properly maintained and timely. The bus driver/conductor take proper care of kids. They are properly trained to take necessary steps in case of any mishaps (kids lost).
5. Extra-curricular activities- The school promotes various activities such as sports, drama, speech etc. The interested students are encouraged by various teachers to practice and participate in inter-school competition and win accolades.
6. Teachers - The teachers are polite and seem genuinely interested in the improvement of their respective students at least in the Parent-teachers meet. Though the overall feedback from most of the students /Parents is that many teachers are not up to the mark in teaching. However, that can be broadly said about all the schools in Mira-Bhayander (which I believe is due to low salaries).
7. Food - The primary students are served food which healthy and hygienic. The school has dedicated dietitian who looks after the food menu served.
8. Infrastructure - The school premises are spacious and have well maintained classrooms and playground. However, the newer schools boast of larger building and bigger playground which does not hold attraction unless the education provided is equally balanced.
I have listed all the various aspects of RBK school and hope the information would help you in selection of a good school if residing in Mira Bhayander Area.

Harassment from school management

this year, s annual day was a fantastic one.it was mindblowing and the best.but there is a problem students are just burdened in studies there are no extra curricular activities such as yoga, dance and the pt period is also 2 days a week and the pt sir is also often absent.a

A school does not just means a building of books but also a building to make a child realise the actual meaning of "CHILDHOOD". but after all this still

RBK ROCKSS !!!

Harassment from school management

I have analysed the column for at least 20 schools, Each one is loaded with numerious complaints. Perfection is no where or we are expecting too much. SIS(Singapore internation school) have almost null complaints but fee fro 10th standard is 10Lakhs a year (only tution fee), So be happy, chil maar yaara
