Once upon a time boarding
schools were considered mini detention camps, where rowdy children
were sent when their indiscipline
was beyond their parent’s control. The scene has altered dramatically
since then, the quality, infrastructure and the whole concept of
Boarding school has undergone transformation. Now most of the elite
boarding schools are prestigious institutions with state of the art
facilities. Now the students and parents feel proud to be associated
with these educational institutions.
Generally all prestigious boarding schools emphasize on wholesome
development of the student and personality development is the integral
part of the whole learning process. The experienced faculty members
encourage and guide the students to be independent and self motivated.
It has been observed that the Boarding school students are more creative
in planning their time and more successful than the day scholars.
These students are more prepared for their college entrance exams
and are more successful in the exams too.
Another aspect of boarding school is that it has a rich mix of students
from all sections and strata of society and even from different nationalities
and religion. The multi-cultural mix of students offers an enriching
experience to the students as the children learn about other cultures
and religion.
While selecting a boarding school certain aspects have to be considered
such as accreditation of the school, the quality and experience of
the faculty, teacher student ratio, academic standard of the institute,
sports facilities, and extra curricular programs offered etc. Many
boarding schools offer scholarships to students, it is therefore
essential to have all the information before you choose the boarding
school. Once you shortlist the schools that impress you, make sure
that you personally visit the schools and decide which one is best
for your child.
