Q1. Why should I consider a boarding school over a day school?
Ans. With the present sedentary lifestyle of children and the dominance of technology over mankind, children spend most of their time on gadgets and indoor games. A co-ed boarding school helps a child to overcome these challenges by engaging him/her physically and mentally in a constructive, disciplined and innovative environment. As a result, the child grows up to be a competitive, academically sound and a responsible individual
Q2. What are the advantages of a Co-Educational boarding school?
Ans. A Co-ed boarding school promotes gender equality and teaches the child to respect the other gender. It removes shyness, and fear and also increases confidence. One has to be able to work with different genders, cultures, family backgrounds, and traditions in every aspect. Co-education results in young adults who are open-minded, well-rounded, and willing to step outside of their comfort zone
