KG Admissions

Getting a child admitted into reputed schools at the KG level is much tougher than getting an admission into professional colleges. Now why is this so? Are we the cause for this hype ?

It is more a status symbol to say that their child is studying in a XYZ school for the parent. The parents don't mind the child traveling through the traffic everyday to and fro in a hired commute. Unheeding to the fact that the child gets tired and falls ill most of the days. Agreed that the schools near by may not have results as the XYZ ones. As long as the school has the infrastructure and experienced teachers to handle young children why are the parents looking at 12th board results which is going to happen after 14 yrs...
I never did understand...!!
Now when most of the parents are educated and are capable enough to teach the basics up to primary section why task the young ones with hours of travel.
I'm sure with suggestions and voluntary help from the parents any school will strive to do better. Instead of spending the extra money on donations and in fuel for commuting the parents can contribute to the so called ordinary schools in the neighbourhood and make it a better place for the future generations. I always felt that's how the present XYZ schools too would have attained its status. No school is the best right from the first day of establishment.

Let's make the child happy and healthy going to school, than taxing the child with earlier waking up time, half finished breakfast and longer hours of travel to reach the XYZ school on time....
