Small school till class 5, then a big one? Thinking about The Golden Rose High School in Abids

banyan_trail_2122

The Golden Rose High School in Abids came up when I searched for schools that only run nursery to class 5. The idea appeals to us for our daughter: smaller classes, fewer big-school routines while she is little. Our son is already at a large school and he's fine, but he was very quiet for most of his first year there. What I can't picture is the switch at class 6. If your child went from a small primary-only school into a big one, how did that go? The drive from Bachupally is a whole separate question.

    I would treat those as two decisions. A school that ends at class 5 means a second admission round at ten, which some families welcome as a natural break and others find a nuisance, especially if the good options near them fill up from their own primary sections. And Bachupally to Abids at school time could easily be an hour each way for a 4 year old. Before either, what exactly do you mean by small? Class size, campus size, or the feel of the place? Those point you to quite different schools.
