Well,Schools do belive in philosophy but as mentioned here students must aquaint them selfs with the schools hilosophy,in particular talkin og Rajghat here,i am from imposing ones philosophy onto students is a sin and that is what we were taught at Rajghat,the school does not belive in philosophy ,just give yourself a second and find out why youchild needs to goto a school like Mothers Inter or Rajghat and if you can figure that out then who can stop him.
Philosophy is to be follwed but schools are to make children independant.
i am a father of a 3yr old just about to begin the rigmarole of Delhi school interviews for my kid and ourselves, the parents. I guess the real interview is of the parents. Good schools are aware that each child is an individual and needs to be handled differently and also the reputation of play school doesnt count. I have come across instances of kids from some of the best play schools in my area not uttering a word in the interview, but alas the the application filling part and real interview is of the parents. Can you suggest a suitable answer to a very common question put up "Why do you want to put your child in this school?" (In fact, to be truthful, I might not). Thanks for the help.
I personally feel that I have never met any parent who is in favour of appearing for an interview for his/her child, or wants that his/her child should face and interview. We all know that this is an unwanted practice which only decreases confidence in ourself and our child. Then why don't we all come forward and take steps and raise our voices to eliminate this unwanted practice from our society, and suggest other ways of making selection in schools.
Dear Ms. SHILPA BHARTAN IYER, I am Balaji from Coimbatore, Tamilnadu. I have gone through your TIPS TO ACE SCHOOL INTERVIEW, it is fantastic and very useful to the parents those who are waiting for their childrens brightful future. I am very happy to appreciate your work. Keep going. Wish you all the best. Thank you, Sincerely, Balaji
I think the most important thing is to have confidence in your child's ability.Just let him be his normal self.Chldren are survivors and they know what clicks in their favour.I am a father of a 4 year old son.And have never thought of things that you guys write about.My son got his admission in 2 schools in Mumbai, by just being hisself and doing what he does best, identify cars .Only one school has not called him for a mid term admission-too bad for them.Parents don't fret and lose sleep over this,you child is the best thing that has happened to the world.
I really appreciate the way the article is placed. it will really help the parents to face the interview for their toddler in better manner. In today's age to get into a good school is really a challenge for the parents and after readingr article, i am really hapy to preapare my child accordingly. Please keep on posting such articles more... they are really helpful.
The advice given is too much... It unnecessarily add ups the fear of parents.
We are not going to face any war kind of situation. Its a simple interview. I say just they want to see the child and parents. Let them go freely and attend.
I can say school is not a matter. Your children can become a scientist by studying in an ordinary school. We have lots of examples lets take Honble Dr.Abdul Kalam, he came from some ordinary school.
Your children will become extraordinary. School is not a matter, it very much depends upon encouragement of parents and the childrens interest . Instead of giving so much donations you can buy a PC, books instruments etc.
