Parents of Preschoolers  Discussion Forum

Name: Priya P

My family and I attended a school interview process in Brigade School, JP Nagar, a so called ' Good School' .
Initially they took all the kids and parents to some basement area where 4-5 teachers were evaluating the kids.
Had some toys spread around and asking kids to identify colours and count numbers.
Every time each teacher came near my child she would ask his name. Poor chap had to answer atleast 4-5 times the same question.
He was not even 3 years old then. To my surprise my child answered all the questions asked to him and even followed all the instructions given to him.
Some of kids didnt even open their mouth there.

Then came the next task to meeting the Principal and the Brigade foundation member, both were ' WOMEN' .
Their faces seemed happy talking to my child. Then they asked about ourselves.
Me and my Husband informed them that both of us were Software Professionals and my son goes to day care.
With the word day care, the colour of these so called educated ladies changed. They just told us, we will get back to you.
During the interview I happen to meet one of my apartment kid, who' s mother was a housewife.
He was also there during the interaction while my son was being interviewed and this kid did not even open his mouth.
Finally I gotto know that my son application was rejected and the other kid was given amdission.
Now here is my conclusion:
1. Like Indian history always has been saying a WOMAN is WOMAN' s biggest enemy.
These so called school Principals, are working working women. Then why are they other working woman' s enemies.
2. Does spending quantity time with your kids equivalent to spending quality time. I dont think so.
3. School' s like Brigade charge ridiculous fees like 1Lakh admission fee. So how do they expect people to shed our so much money with single salary.
Or do they want only Business or people with illegal income.
4. Also if such schools are so against workign mothers than please it is my earnest request to all such schools to only educate boys.
Why waste time teaching girls. Ofcourse Principals like you need to study somewhere.
