Feedback on Kothari International School

Hi chirmiesai,
Kothari International is a good school but bit expensive. But it provides all the facilities to their students like Security & Safety, good infrastructure, personal attention , Play Ground ,and AC rooms etc . It is based on CBSE curriculum and timings are also little more ( i think from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm ). It is good school having very balanced student teacher ratio and they do have very innovative methods of teaching which do not put too much pressure on the child and also don't put unnecessary pressure of large homework etc on students. If you can afford around Rs. 10,000+ per month then it is good school with all the facilities.. The breakup of admission fees is as follows
25K - Admission fees
15k - Refundable security deposit
15K - Non-refundable security deposit
15k- Quarterly fees ( 3 months)
Total 70,000 ( This was fees last year for nursery class so now it will be higher after fees hike this year) .

I heard that it is good school situated on Tajexpressway , Their student/teacher ratio is also less , admission fees is around Rs.65000 . Don't know much about school but yes i also have not heard anything bad about school . May be some other user who has experience with this school can put his/her feedback .

Hi chirmiesai,
Although its not a first hand information about the step by step school but i read about this on complaint board column
" The step by step school in Noida is charging a ridiculous amount of fees from the parents under unjustified heads like meal charges even for non-working days, social service that the school does in its name, scholarships fund but no scholarships are given etc. etc. Besides, the school boasts of many excursions and trips for students within the city for 'practical' education, for which they charge extra amount, over and above the already high fees. To top it all, the level of academics in the school is not exactly first rate either and in fact is quite debatable."

"I agree, we admitted our child in step by step noida but withdraw her out because of the substancial increase in fees in the same year she joined in. Apart from the quarterly fees, ..which is anyways too high, there are other compulsary charges added up every month -like excursion costs/ workshop charges etc etc. Its ridiculous."

So you confirm once again all about this only then go ahead.
Hopefully this information will help you .
