Hi,
We had interview for nursery admission in NHVPS last week. I must say it was a nightmare. Since we are residing in rajarajeshwarinagar it was very important for us to get admission in that school. We were following up from last year.

On the day of interview, the moment we entered into principal’s chamber she had “Not to give admission” attitude towards us. She stated questioning me and my husband. She went on finding mistakes in whatever we spoke. After interrogating about us and our family she said she will get back to us and asked us to leave. We waited for a day and finally called the school to know that our application is rejected.

I and my spouse work in good organization with decent salary. Our Child is very active and social. We stay within 2 kms of the school. We have good family background. We both are very soft spoken. Then what should be reason for the rejection? A BIG QUESTION

I think she had already decided whom to give admission and not give. Call for interview was just a gimics.2 of my friends attended the interview same day and their profile is same as that of ours. Only difference is that they belong to principal’s (Rama Ranganathan) Caste. Is she caste biased? If yes then she is doing wrong .She has no rights to so and I think school management should pitch in.

There are no rules and regulation in India. In US you can’t reject admission to school without valid reason. People who stay in that area should be given preference if they are capable of paying the fees.

If somebody from management of NHVPS is reading my blog I request them to give a thought about Principal Mrs. Rama Ranganathan.

I am not writing this with anger that my child didn’t get admission .I just want to create awareness about what Mrs. Rama is doing. I am sure many parents would have gone through this pain. I am raising voice behalf of them.

MRS Rama, If you are reading this I would request you , not to do this in future. For every parent their child’s future is very important .By doing this you are making them to suffer with guilt that because of them their child couldn’t get admission to the school. I and my husband are suffering from same guilt
Thanks
Kirana ST replied. Hello Parents,

I was tried for my son 4 years back becuase i heard this shool was doing good so I went so many visits to meet the principal but she was very reluctant and no smiling face and very rude.She can tell no seats available but sh was told that why you were coming to my school you can look out other school.This is not her job and she answered very rude.Finally i escaped from that school and my son is studying in Ryan International now.So I decided not to put my daughter New Horizon but one og my friend inssited the principal is not doing that kind of attitude now so I thought of try for my daughter this year 2009-2010.I was called for interview and my daughter was answered all the questioans asked for and they should not expect much for nursery students. after the interview they asked to meet the principal and i was shocked becuase there is no change from the principal even after 4 years.She was talking to my daughter very rude and obviously no smiling face.Then how children will answer her question so I did not get any call back from them.

Next is the interesting one. After 10 days i got a call from New horizon school that I have to come and meet office person(Jaya ?Kumari).I thought of they called for admission but she called into the room and asked to close the door. And she started taliking that if you provide 4 computers to our trust then we can admit your child in Nursey and this is aprt from your school fees which is 62000+10000+10000+4 computers and she said that it is management quota.Why should I pay these much as probe even my daughter was did well in interview.

Not sure why the educatonal instituions going like companies.

So please saty away from this school but think before if you decided to put your children in this school.
