If Mrs Vanaja, adorned with powered lens, a cane in one hand and a book in another, and her student Savvy, with a 10-kg school bag, were to appear at any of the international schools in Hyderabad, they would have felt strangely out of place. Because, in Hyderabad’s new-age schools, life goes far beyond the structured world of classroom and textbooks!

A trendy mix of ICSE / CBSE syllabus and the IB, the courses offered at these schools give the students a taste of the best of both worlds. One can sign up for a Senior Cambridge course with optionals like Yoga, Hindi and Sanskrit. State-of-the-art classrooms, equipped with projectors, computers, internet, and a 1:25 teacher-student ratio are what you could expect.

These schools typically aim for the holistic development of the child and hence games, hobbies, community work are serious business. A SWOT (Strength Weakness Opportunity Threat) analysis of every student is carried out, which means the Dhoni or Khushwant Singh or Sabeer Bhatia in your child gets due opportunity to show up and get groomed accordingly. And all these for a yearly fee of some Rs 1.5 lakh - Rs 2 lakh (in dollars)!.
