Open Quote One of the worst schools ever! the math book they follow is the worstits Big Ideas math. every problem is different in it with hardly any examples. Also, the teachers themselves dont know anything.They have maths as the last period , that too for only 45 mins and other crap classes for 1 hour+. God knows what they teach in class. They teach one section, and then give 60 sums for Homework the same day, and the very next day , they keep a test including the entire chapter! how on earth are little kids supposed to finish 60 sums(which are not taught in class) and also prepare for a test in one evening! this is ridiculous! They have so many projects(half of them are useless) All the subjects here are BAD! but maths is the worst among them! no answer key or any sought of help is given to help the students also.Very bad management and staff. I have only suffered for the 2-3 years that my child went to this school! Close Quote
