New Horizon Public School, Bangalore

Good school with good staff. More importantly good management who welcome kids than look for parents bank balance!!!

Good school with nominal fee structure but there is feedback from parents that the management asks for some kind of favor when admitting your child.

Neither i m misleading to anybody nor i m saying against any one but
this is my bitter experience with this school.
i went 5:30 am to take form. i took form and filled it and found interview date and time 15 nov.
(this is very first day of interview)
.I heard that this school has first come first serve policy.
they took my daughter in separate room for interview.
after 10 or 12 minutes she came back.
when i asked her what teacher asked ,
she told me teacher picked up animals and asked name of those.
(elephant & giraffe),then she drew sun there and colour that ,
name of fruits
and teacher gave her balloon and asked colour of that balloon.
it means she answered good.
After that we went to meet principal .
Two more teachers were there.
they asked questions to us.
1. why this school
2. from where u did graduation
3. hobbies(like dancing ,painting ,singing)
4. in terms of skills how will u support school
5. why r u (mother) not doing job

And then teacher asked 2 questions to my daughter
1. what is the color of ur outfit
2. where is ur ballon

Then they said they will call us and tell result after 7 days .
and interview was over.

Actually we were 100% sure that we will get a seat there but we didn't get.
My daughter were answering nicely. I don't know why did they reject us? and what is the criteria of that school?

I went for my child's admission to New Horizon because I have heard and seen good feedback on the school and the all round education it provides. But unfortunately, my personal treatment was no good. My child was purposefully placed in waiting list like many other children. I was later told to give 1 lakh in cash over and above tuition fees and first time admission fees in case I wanted admission which was not refundable in any circumstance. Later, I heard many parents had faced the same situation. They also seem to demand different rates with different parents. They demanded sum in cash to parents who missed the 2 day deadline to pay their fees.
Education does come at a cost, that too a very high cost.

I regret to share my painful experience with New Horizon. My son studied at New Horizon from 2nd std. to 8th std. by ICSE stream. He was a bright boy from the beginning itself.

During his 8th std academic year he had to study for 9th std. lessons. Also as a result, he could score only 47% in his year end exams. We were called by his teacher and told that he would be detained at 8th std or would given TC with promotion to 9th std. We collected his TC and running from pillar to post for getting admitted to any school with ICSE or CBSE curriculum at bangalore. No established school admits any students at 9th std. The other option is make hi study state board exam which emphasize on compulsary Kanadda which is difficult to learn at his stage. I don't wish any parents the amount of mental trauma myself and wife are undergoing. We spent a lot of money for my son's schooling. Also I learnt for other classes also they are issuing TCs. Schools are centers of learning where tomorrows citizens are moulded, not money making corporate bodies. Schools compete with casinos and night clubs in minting money. It is the selfish middle class parents are hypocritically tolerate and protects such system of exploitation.
