What are some of the good things about the faculty of your School?

My school is renowned for its experienced faculty. We have a teacher named Dr R.K. Mitra a physics teacher who has been awarded nationally many times for his research work. Then we also have many teachers with at least 20 years of experience and a counselor with 15 years of experience. The most fascinating thing about my school faculty is that most of the teachers who have a practical subject like our physics sir, also try to show the practical implementation of their subjects in our day-to-day life.

What are some of the bad things about the faculty of your School?

Everything has both good points and weak points, the same story with my school. Although my school’s faculty is very experienced some teachers like my maths teacher and my computer teacher can’t clear the concepts and doubts of students. This is because in 2016 my school implemented the CBSE board. Before then it was UP board. Because of this some teachers are still not used to it and the new faculty which came has very less good teachers probably due to their lack of experience.

What are some of the good things about the infrastructure of your School?

There are many good things about the infrastructure of my school:

  • My school’s football ground has exactly the same ratio of length and breadth as an international field would have.
  • Last year 30% of students scored more than 90% on Boards and not a single student failed.
  • In every classroom, there are air conditioners and smart boards which ensure a good learning environment.

What are some of the bad things about the infrastructure of your School?

Some of the bad things about the infrastructure of my school are:

  • My school was built 61 years ago. Since then the infrastructure hasn’t changed very much.
  • My school does not have a swimming pool, gymnasium, and volleyball ground.
  • The surveillance cameras haven’t been changed in the last 10 years. So there can be security issues.

What are some of the good things about the student-to-teacher ratio of your School?

Some of the good things about the student-to-teacher ratio at my school are:

Most teachers try to support you not only in academics but also in other problems unrelated to academics, even your personal problems. They try to solve every student’s problem whether it is academic or any personal matter. They try to support every child irrespective of their academic abilities.

What are some of the bad things about the student-to-teacher ratio of your School?

I can’t think of any bad things about the student-to-teacher ratio of my school. The only stumbling block is that my school has a 1:50 student-to-teacher ratio. So although the teachers try their best they don’t solve every student’s problem especially those students who are frightened to even ask them about their problems from the teacher.

What are some of the great initiatives/amenities offered in your School?

Some of the initiatives offered in my school are

  • Micfest: A mega 2-day interschool event in which every year 20 schools participate from all over Lucknow.
  • Annual concert: A cultural event in which every student gets a chance to participate.
  • Sports Meet: An event in which every student gets a chance to show their sports abilities.
  • There are also many other competitions organized internally like debate, elocution, dance, buffer-free, interclass sports matches, etc.
  • Remedial classes are organized for students who are weak in academics.

What are the things you would have liked to change about your School if you could?

First of all, I would like to change my school to a boys’ school like it was 5 years ago. The second thing I want to change would be the student-to-teacher ratio. Then I want my school to once again implement UP board and the last thing that I want would be the surveillance cameras which haven’t been changed in the last 10 years.

How likely are you to recommend this School to other students?
