Hi All,
every year during the school admission season, parents often review schools on various parameters as part of selection process. They check on online reviews mostly, which is not a trusted source in my opinion.
This post is to share the news reported/published by mainstream media on the wrongful conduct of school or the students, i consider this as a red flag about the school or the type of children who study there, this should be considered as the key parameter for selection of a school. Most mainstream media, avoid the school names initially in their articles, so they rarely come up in the online searches. Over a period of time, things are forgotten until another incident pops up again.
In this post I am just compiling the news articles published and nothing more, requesting parents to approach with caution:
