Sishya is a
very popular school in my area called Adyar, in Chennai. Studying at this
school seems to be prestigious for many (as it is believed to give best
education), since the school accommodate minimum number students to facilitate balancing
efficiency and quality education, with economy. From KG to Class X there are
not more than 30 per Class with just 3 sections each. I know this school from
my childhood days only by name and it has been described to provide higher
standard of education and getting admission here does need to be literate
and wealthy parents.
Though most of
students here are from luxurious background or economically fwd, I find money
isn’t the prior to get a place at this school. Since moved opposite to this
school, we aren’t to avoid receiving things happening with the school and the
tenant who reside upstairs of this house succeed recently on his endeavour to get
a place for his 3-years-old. During our occasional conversations he conveyed
that he had registered for his son when he was 6 months in womb! Though both of
his parents are educated and well placed at jobs with enough income they haven’t
won the admission easily.
There seems to be
lot of people in the waiting list, whom should have been registered in the same
way (children at birth), as admission is given on first come basis for the
minimum number of seats apart certain numbers that are reserved for Christian
children, since the school received Christian Minority status. The school comes
under the Council for Indian School Certificate Examination has been well equipped
with state of the art facilities. Almost student come to this school via only
cars and one could come across parades of cars coming in and out of the school,
at specific times twice. It was a mild entertainment to watch different kind of
cars though it cause annoy and traffic jams sometime.
It’s
interesting to note that the school admits minimum number students to not to
give away certain aspect of the school. They are certain about the quality of education
and encourage activities that involve much physical and mental ability. The
school’s ground is an advantage and being one of the big school grounds in city
they conduct all kind of sports that student interest. Unlike other school, Sishya
commence its first term in January and end with third term in December. The
school has two vacation periods that marks with Christmas and summer in May.

I'm learning alot here :)
I smiled when I read that the students come by car. Back in my school time some students came to school in bigger cars than the teachers. Most of the teachers came by bicycle :))

That is some gate! But a shame that only the wealthy can send their children there.
it sounds like an exclusive place to receive a good education. i've heard about places like that in the US, too - where folks register for a spot before their child is even born.
thanks for sharing their beautiful entrance, jeevan.
I bet it really counts more to know the right people, although I'm sure money helps. :)
Sounds like a very excellent place to go, and learn. Lovely photos too.
Wow is all I can say. Your never to old to learn when you read this.
Good information.It is a school for rich kids I think.But has a good reputation and name.
Very nice entrance to this prestigeous school. I like the blue archway.
Today getting a seat for the kid in good school is as tough as getting a job that you wish to get.
great entrance to this 'posh' school
I no longer have a fascination for 'top/rich schools'. I think young parents are over enthusiastic to give their children the 'best'. It is to be seen how these 'best' children grow up and treat their parents in return.

I'm impressed by the story of this special school. Evidently if the school management is running it according to the highest standards of education,they've to be selective in admission criteria. Their fee structure'd be high too,therefore only wealthy and intelligent kids can seek admission.In the US also private schools are run on similar lines.
Registration while 'Children at birth' is enough to say about its superiority. I am impressed by the school's norms and conditions that strictly focus on quality education and give equal priority to everyone. That's a rare school in India.
it might be a popular school but not really a good school.. kids talk in terms of money, what car do your parents drive, how big if your house, blah bla... :(
