CBSE till class 5, then FIITJEE World School in Karkhana? Asking for my sister

violet_wave_3503

My sister's son finishes class 5 at a CBSE school in Secunderabad this year, and she is looking at FIITJEE World School in Karkhana for class 6. She doesn't use this app, so I'm asking on her behalf. Her two worries: 1. Moving from CBSE to state board at class 6 2. How long the school day is for the younger classes Is anyone's child there, or did you look at it and decide?

    I don't know this school. Something your sister may want to settle first is why this school: preparation for entrance exams later, or mainly location? The answer changes which day length she would accept.

    Two of my son's friends moved from CBSE to state board around class 6. Maths was fine for both. One struggled with Telugu for a year and needed help at home. That was a different school, just what I saw 😊

    i was at one of those foundation-style schools from class 8, long back. the days were long and i don't remember much else about those years. no idea how this one runs though

      Long as in what time, roughly? That's exactly the part my sister keeps coming back to.

      When we compared middle schools for our daughter, finishing times ranged from 3 to after 5 depending on 'study hours'. Ask them for the class 6 timetable on paper. That answers it faster than any review here will.
