My children had a great time at the school. Academic rigor, teaching standards, college placements, we had a great experience overall. TISB has made my children's lives!

After a year and a half (which saw 2 primary years headmistresses leave, a swathe of teachers depart and a change of educational board, not to mention an appalling lack of care and education) we moved our children to another int school in Bangalore where things are finally back on track and they are significantly happier for it. As are we because we are not having to deal with at least one issue caused by the school a week. These included our children getting repetitively sick. In fact there were continual sickness outbreaks and very little care from the school in dealing with them. It ended up with parents having to go to the media to be heard by the school board and even then efforts were short-lived. There was also a monkey infestation that saw monkeys at desks, in the washrooms, drinking and eating the kids' snacks that were cleverly left out on outdoor tables. A lack of staffing meant kids were not adequately supervised whether not being served lunch (cue children piling their plates up with dessert) and not being adequately supervised in break times etc. Kids get just 10-15 minutes for lunch at TISB and thats if they aren't held back in class for doing extras that the teachers dont seem to be able to fit into their class timings. My children were having to eat on the way home, which wasn't so bad (poor boarders!) due to a ridiculous schedule that sees them leave school at the early time of 2.30pm. There is no play equipment for them, no games encouraged etc and the timetable is so heavily focused on maths and English that there is little else on it. Communication is very poor and so most parents have no idea what is going on with their children. It was only in the last few weeks at the school that we received newsletters every 2 weeks. There were no weekly class updates, you had to rely on school reports for seeing how your child was doing. Equally in the entire time there my children received 6 spelling tests and that is because i complained. There isn't any graduated reading or any reading aloud to check on levels, which is a pretty vital and standard practice in primary. School camp saw children being left in beds alone and sick for the day without parents being notified until far later (when having to go to hospital). A terrible lack of staffing that saw very young children arriving at school off the busses without a teacher in sight to manage them. Children are told to "forget it" when asking for maths concepts to be repeated, with teachers unable to write English properly despite the fact they are teaching it. Everyone seems to think its the best educationally (we were told this and its why we sent our children there). It's certainly one of the most expensive but don't be fooled as its their hugely competitive Senior School getting the grades. The primary years offering is woefully inadequate. As we have found out, there are far, far better schools to send your primary aged children to.

The board of this school only care about profit, school food is appalling, sickness bugs are rife, and the school does nothing. The board doesn鈥檛 want to engage with parents who want change. The board has even told the head to not engage with parent groups!
