Beware . Review on Orbis School, Pune

Beware of these money mongers!!!

They have hosted an excellent website to portray a very colourful picture of this school. This is the first trick to lure prospective parents. Once you leave your contact info in the site, the admission counsellor (have you seen this role in a good school ever?) will call you to visit the school. Once you are there she will tell you about their great curricular and extra-curricular program etc. She will show you the ground floor class rooms. Now ask her that you want to see the other classrooms in the upper floors.....or which board you are affiliated to.....or can I meet the principal? Watch the response!

Now being happy with the interaction with this excellent marketing personnel you may take admission for your child and the real pain begins..........

The quality of education provided by the school is terrible due to lack of good teachers and frequent resignations of faculties. The school is more focussed on advertising and commercial activities than improving quality of faculties.

They talk about a lot of extra curricular activities and charge a lot for them. However, students hardly get any benefit out of them as they are not practised regularly due to lack of coaches and facilities.

The school is not yet affiliated to any board!!!. For past few years they are giving false promise to the parents, that they affiliation process is in a very matured stage and will be done soon. However, now we are really concerned about the truth in it.

Now being upset with so many negatives you may take a decision to transfer your child. Wait...here comes another shock. You have to pay the next session's fee...because you have not given them an advance notice of minimum two months!!!! Without that you will not get the TC or the birth certificate that you had to submit in original.

The school is so keenly focussed in commercials that they have hardly any energy left for academics. I would advise to keep distance for your children's sake.
