Bad! Bad! Bad! .What a bitter expericence it has been. My child has lost precious time & this Mother's Pride is nothing but a advertisement, of so called Presidium School, which we pay for.
My child just finished his Pre nursery from MP Gurgaon & would suggest parents not to pur their wards in MP. So has been the experince of all parents of Class PNE(Pre Nur E) Batch 2010-2011.
First & Foremost: School has no fee structure. They charge differently from different parents! Then do bakwas of corporate discount, bulk booking blah blah!. I got my son pre admitted in Oct 2009 thru their stall put up for early registration at Defence Colony. I was offered a discount of 27000. Yes, & I gladly paid them upfront rest of the charges, including so called Album charges of 7500. I started getting calls from very next month to send my child to school, althought I had booked for session april 2010 - march 2011.
Anyways, my child started school on Feb 20th 2010. To your surprise, I had to pay for the entire Feb month & also 2800 quaterly charges for Jan 2010 to March 2010.
My friend seeked admission of his ward in April 2010. He was offered Rs. 200 less on transport, Rs. 800 Less on Mothly fee, Rs. 1000 in lieu of 7500 paid by me for the album. I went & tried talking, I I could get back was that there was a corporate discount in their case.
Later on 12th april while I was at school, I learnt that the new admissions are geting 2 months tution fee waiver for the holiday time ie. may & june 2010. I approached them again, all had to face sorry for on excuse that you ward was obliged admission in early session so, I have no right to claim that.
As the scool started.first batch of teachers changed by april itself. We though it was may be new session issues. Later when my child got back to school in july, again there were new teachers. Good these teachers were really nice & my child was there fan. Even I thought wow! good school. Both tese teaches played on & off with the school. Most of the time they were absent on some or the other excuse & my poor childs class had to do most of the time with maids or alternate teachers.
Time went on.& teachers kept changing almost every month! Yes every month. My child, who always wanted to go to school, started showing tantrums."SCHOOL NAHI JAANA" "SCHOOL AACHA NAHI HAI", "ABHI MAARTA HAI", "MADAM SUSU NAHI KARTE", "MADAM PAANI NAHI DAYTE" etc. etc.
This was time I started checking on other parents, when I realized that every one had same issues. Some parents even complined about school food. I requested principal, I want to eat food on one of the days & want to check the kitchen also. She refused. She said, mangement does not permit it.
BOSS! WE ARE PAYING FOR IT! WHY CANT I SEE THE FOOD WHAT MY CHILD GETS!
Lot of parents started calling on me, as that their wards are facing stomach problems. Almost same set of problems was reported my more than 8 wards.
As ime passed, we started getting calls to admit child in PRESIDIUM. Surpriseingly.THE SCHOOL GROUP HAS NO AGE RESTICTIONS. THEY DONT EVEN BOTHER FOR A AGE CERTIFICATE! All I could see is "AAN DAYEE"(let it come in) attitude. They had stupid schemes.some parent opted for it.
GOD, finally my son got admission in KRM! hope that school is better!
We were called for the fairwell. All we got back was my sons sketch books etc etc. Most of them of other children of his class.teachers even did not bother to sort them by name. WORST! my wards name & surname both were wrongly spelled on the fairwell card! I felt so ASHAMED! boss.i will NOT RECOMEND MOTHER'S PRIDE TO ANY ONE EVER! so is the view of 20 more odd parents I Know.
Also one more point last but not the least.school has no screeing on parents or children. The CROWD IS REALLY REALLY BAD!
