Helping your child move and settle into a new home and a new neighbourhood is always going to be difficult, but finding the best school for your child will be even harder.
However we hope the following steps will help you make the best choice for your kids:
Make a list
Before you start your search, list down the kind of school you and your child are looking for.
Ask few questions like......
Would your kid do better in a small school or a large one? Will a strong sports or theatre program make all the difference for your child? Does your kid like a structured learning environment, or does
he thrive when he has some independence?
Once you finish your analyses, it will help you narrow down your search better.
Visit the schools
Once you’ve narrowed down your choices, set up a time to meet the teachers, principals or administration staff.
Check for things like:
When you visit the school, you are able to get a clear picture about the school’s environment. Moreover, it helps you gain confidence, when you interact with the school management and other students.
Find what is the school's reputation?
When students choose a school, they're essentially choosing their future. They're deciding which school will be on their resume for the rest of their life and where they'll network with future professionals. Hence it’s very important that you check the school’s reputation, before you go ahead with the registration.
Check if the school is officially recognised. Look up reviews online. Check for news stories involving the school and its parent company etc.
E.g. RBKIS an IGCSE school in Bhayander is well recognised all over Mumbai. With IGCSE - the world's most popular international qualification in hand, the school promises to build up a strong foundation for your child’s future.
RBKIS is one of the eminent and distinguished institutes in western suburbs, Mumbai. So if you are looking for an IGCSE school in Mira road, or somewhere near Dahishar, then RBKIS is the best option for your kids.
Remember, reputation matters, in education and beyond. Choose your kid’s school carefully: it is likely to set the tone for his/her’s professional reputation.
Have a back-up plan
Be sure to have a back-up plan ready, in case the school you choose doesn’t work out. Find out if there are slots available and what enrolment procedures are at your back-up schools. That way, if things don’t go well for your child at the new school, you can move your kid quickly without starting the process all over again.
For example, you have selected an IGCSE school in Thane, but for some reason, you are unhappy with the location, or are unsure with your selection. During such instance, immediately look for other schools around in the nearby area. Doing so, will save your time, and most importantly, will save your child’s academic year.

- What curriculum the school follows?
- How does this school supervise students’ progress toward meeting grade-level standards?
- How is technology used to support learning and development at this school?
- What addition extracurricular activities are available for students? Etc.............
