Jijo,

Thanks for your comments.

The list was put up by a member in MSN and then copied over here by me. So, yes it is a cut and paste. We all as members can strengthen the information.

If you do have more up to date information to help members, please do post that. Also if you feel that a particular school is not suitable for NRIs, that information will be valuable to members. So please do post which schools are not suitable for NRIs and perhaps even the reasons.

To the extent you can copy that list, add, subtract, comment, that can only help members.

Thanks for the feedback.

Below are some schools i feel are good with some comments and a very rough grading with 5 stars being the best.
The below comments and grading are my personal opinion please make your own judgements.:)

MOre schools

-Dhirubhai Ambani school *****
bandra east
Very very good one and affordable with approx Rs 70000 onwards per year, i think.


-Ecole Mondiale ( hope the spell is correct) *****- another very good school
Juhu

-Kangaroo Kids Now known as Billabong High School ***
Run by a lady called Leena Asher. Lot of Pomp.
Bandra, Juhu, Santacruz
More Name than matter, but better than a lot of schools.
-Cathedral *****

Much as i understand NRIs would like to go for schools offering ICSE , IGCSE or IB curricullums.

CBSE- is what they have all over india in central schools.

SSC - is a local curricullum--not to be taken lightly though.Very good.

We will be in Mumbai by mid-April. We spent 2 weeks in Jan, trying to meet as many schools as possible. Jan is not the best time, but didn't have much control over the timing.

Most of the schools we were interested in didn't seem to have any openings for First grade (for my daughter). But we managed to get her admitted to Billabong High in Santacruz.

Some of you might have heard about recent controversies, esp, the breakaway by what is now known as Vibgyor.

Wanted to get some dope from folks on experiences with Billabong. I know they have franchises around the country. So, any gyan will be much appreciated.

Thanks.

Appreciate your feedback. We took the Billabong admission as a place holder. Otherwise wifey would have refused to make the R2I move!!

They seem to have the affiliation in place. A friend who sends her kids to Kangaroo seems to have done some research and was comfortable enroling her own kid at Billabong. Google searches indicate that the Billabong franchise has been well accepted in other parts of the country.

As for alternatives....... we have submitted an application at Dhirubhai Ambani school. One constraint we are operating under is that we are applying for First standard. And most schools don't have any openings. If it was for LKG or UKG, there are more options.

I will be in Mumbai in a couple of weeks and plan to start calling around. Will update the group.

Thanks.

We are considering Ballabong in Juhu. Any feedback on this? What is the typical fee structure. We also liked PrimeAcadamey.
