Which second languages does Mount Banyan offer if a child joins in class 4?

We're in Somajiguda and looking at Mount Banyan Global School for my daughter for class 4 next year. She's 8 and has done Hindi as her second language so far. She manages it, though it's not her favourite subject and we can't help much at home because we speak Malayalam. What I can't find anywhere is which second languages are offered at that level, and whether a child joining in class 4 has to take whatever her new classmates already started with. If anyone has a child there or has asked the office recently, I'd be glad to know.

    I am also looking for this information but for Urdu. My son is 5, next year Class 1, we are in Abids. I am trying to find schools where Urdu is there as second language, because at home we speak Urdu and I can help him in that. If you find out whether Mount Banyan has Urdu please tell here.

      I'll ask about Urdu as well when I call them. I'm planning to ring the office after the holidays and I'll put whatever they say here. I haven't found it written anywhere either, which is a bit frustrating when it matters this much for the day-to-day homework.

      When you call, ask about the specific class each of you is joining, and ask whether the option depends on how many students choose it. A general list of languages tells you nothing. My daughter's school listed three languages in the prospectus and only two actually ran in her year. Get the answer by message or email if they'll give it, so you're not relying on what someone said on the phone.
