[Resolved]  Bethany High — beware of bethany high school bangalore koramangala

This is to warn all parents about Bethany High in Koramangala Bangalore.

This school is nothing but con in the name of education. The teaching quality is so poor however the fees is so high that I shelled out Rs75000 per head for my two kids and every month I shell out rs 1400 each every month as fees . The facility in school is so poor, no sporting activity and extra curriculum activity. Its only money money and moneyfor this and that

On the pretext of activity Club, picnic, computer etc we have to pay around Rs 1400 every moth as fees and another 12 k every year as admission fees. On top of it they ask kids to pay for this and that like Carnival amounting another 5000 every year.

They do not have a standard school uniform policy and keep changing the dress every year. They force us to buy cheap shoes. The books are 25% more expensive then what is available outside.

This year they have increased the fees by 15%, The Principal is doing nothing in improving the standard of education and his only work is expanding his empire and planning ways and means con parents.

This year I am planning to pull out my children the teachers quality is very poor and school administration going down every year.

The Principal is the main culprit in bringing down this institution due to greed for money

i totally disagree with this cos i hv heard abt its performance since long years, , , n i tried very hard to get admissions to my son at Bethany, , i never bothered to get an single application else where though i was guided to have other options, , finally got admission at Bethany and i also notice my son's improvement in all aspects, , the teaching faculty doesn't just blindly delegate the work to parents, , , they complete the curriculum with in the specified time.i am proud to say tht my son is a BETHANIAT.

I liked Edwin Mathai's reasoning and was even impressed with his experiences at the school... Until the reference to another school down the same street. The high quality education that he received unfortunately does not show in his respect to people from all walks of life "down the same street". What use is an "education" that we shell out so much money for which gives us the "enlightenment" to discriminate and causes somehow to consider ourselves superior than those who cannot afford it. I wouldn't want my child to get such an education, at any price.

All parents want their kids to have a better education than they could afford for themselves. Eventually, it is not about money, it is about values that schools instil in their wards. The "success" we attribute to good education is so personal, that someone from that "school down the street" might consider him/herself to be a lot happier and content with life simply because their education taught them to have their feet on the ground and treat all people, including the ones "up the street" with respect and courtesy - and this I believe is priceless to have and comes really cheap in "that" school.
I sure do agree with Suchitra Koti. We need to treat our fellowmen decently and irrespective of their schooling. Makes me wonder - is there yet another caste in India - the Private School Caste?!!!

True education is reflected iin ones's humane behaviour towards ones species. Edwin seems to have missed the bus totally in his schooling at Bethany.
can any one comment on beow

-Standard of education in Bethany in recent time. Bethany is a well known school, but are they able to keep up the standard of education of late?

- I hear that since the school is ICSE, the kids develop good communication skills as ICSE has a good focus on language/literature. I also hear that the school has lot of extra curricular activities. Do they focus equally on the Academic side?

- This is a ICSE school. I hear that most students switch to CBSE after X. Is this true?. If so, are the students able to handle the switch to CBSE for XI after spending 10 years in ICSE environment.

- How is the schools overall performance in ICSE X or XII board exams. I do see that couple of kids have scored 90+% in X or XII. But how is the school's overall pass percentage in the board exams?.

- Any info on school's performance in National Level Science Talent Search Examination (NSTSE) or other talent examls?

- Student/Teacher ratio
hi, thanks a lot for your information. I was about to put my son in this school.
Bethany fee structure is quite reasonable and as a parent of a Bethanite, I totally disagree with the complaint levelled against school. The curriculum structure of the school is very well devised to generate thinking power in students .Bethany provides a stress-free learning environment to kids .It has multitude of activities to facilitate all round growth and development of children .

My son has been in Bethany for the past ten years now and he is doing exceptionally well in his academics as well as co-curricular activities with very little attention from our side.I really appreciate the efforts of teaching fraternity in this school.They are well trained, highly experienced, very empathetic and approachable.They give individual attention and keep tab on each and every student under their purview.The school has some of the best teachers who nurture and instill good values in kids in their formative years and I am sure people are not foolish to believe such baseless and vague comments posted by some parents who have had bitter experiences due to some personal reasons and deprive their children an opportunity to study in a full fledged school like Bethany High.
I am looking for my daughther's admission to Bethany High in next academic year. She will be exactly 3yrs 1month old by the end of June 2013. Can any one please tell me the process to get admission in nursary?

What would be the admission and tution fees in bethany school?

Regards,
Durai
what is the fees for LKG in Bethany by the way ? Someone please help.
Today I happen to buy a winter jacket custom made by vendor appointed by the school. Guess what its costlier than best brands in the market. What a farce in the name of education. They charged 1100 rupees for a 5 yr kid. Best part is they dont want to even give a receipt for it.
Can somebody pls tell me that what is the criteria for addmission of 2 yr old child in Bethany pre primary/ professional child care? Are admissions really tough?
Bethany is becoming careless in teaching and they r running school only for money making, and
Lots of holidays for the year 365 days they will have only 130dys schools ... And the school timing is very bad ... Responsible person should take action on this ... I don't know what the principle is doing ... Sir pls take our suggestions ... It's not only the one parent facing this problem there are lots of parents like me having the same problem... Pls Chang the timings of the school it's very early ..and they leave very early in the afternoon ... Pls pls change the school timing
Fees is too high.. 75000/- as one time fees and 81000/- annual fees and 21000/- as fees. Plus uniform, and books.. Anything left to pay...
My child goes to Bethany from past 6 years ... Bethany is just name eduction is very poor... The fee is very high.. And the school timing is very bad upto 5th std its from 8 to 1.30 it's not the proper school timings ... Pls respected person should take action about this ... D
Bethany Koramangala, Bangalore, the facility in school is ok but no sporting(Physical) activity and extra curriculum activity.School has very small ground.How they accommodate whole school for sports?. Its only money money money .They will not help those who really need help.Relationship manger is really hopeless, never keep up his words.He will promise, the next day then he make U turn and say that not possible, that is really not a true character.Every year they increase 10% fees but they disclose the fees structure after academic admissions of the other schools are closed.So, that Children can not leave the school and will not get the admission in other schools.Very cunning tactics by Bethany management.Bethany School has one more branch in HSR layout till 2nd std after that children has to move to Sarjapura road, near Dommasandra branch but they generate admission ID from the main branch Koramangala.At the time of joining in HSR layout branch, school will not collect admission fees.At the time of shifting from Hsr branch to Sarjapura road, near Dommasandra branch school demand you to pay admission fees.
I am not against anyone but it's all facts that i had mentioned here what it is really happening in Bethany.
I support to the people who have raised voice towards the high fee charging for education in Bangalore. I am 100% sure that our Pm Modi ji get some strict policy in charging huge school fee across India. Please drop your message in pm India.gov.in to get intervention.
