Selecting a pre-school for a child is a task that requires mammoth effort from the side of the parents. For us it involved the following activities:
- Collecting information about nearby schools
- Shortlisting schools as per our criteria
- Visiting each school and scouting around to see if school meets expectations
- Speaking to directors of the concerned schools about the pedagogy followed
- Talking to other parents
This can take up to a couple of months for laggards like us and at least a few weeks for you efficient folks out there.
I used to look for reviews, fee information, timings and the like on the internet before going to each school. However, I found only a few scattered parent discussion boards. There was little to no information about timings, fees, etc. So I thought of putting up this blog post, about the information we collected, so other parents can benefit from this.
