Would Gowtham Model Schools in Meerpet work for two brothers going into classes 4 and 5?

Practical question first. Do classes 4 and 5 finish at the same time there, and do brothers usually share one bus? Some background. We're in Tolichowki and looking at options for both our sons from June. Mornings at the moment are a juggle between us and the grandparents, and one school with one timetable for both boys is the main thing we want. If you have children in two different classes at this branch, I'd like to hear how the timings and the bus work day to day.

    I can't help with this branch, our son is still a toddler. My sister has two children two classes apart at another school, and their timings matched. What caught her out was the younger one's bus route being changed mid-year. Check whether siblings are guaranteed the same bus, not just usually given it.

    With twelve years between our two, they have never been in one school, so I cannot speak to that part. On timings, ask what happens on days when one class has an exam or event and the other doesn't. That is where one school for both either saves you time or does not.

    Is the plan to move closer to Meerpet? Asking because it's a long way from Tolichowki, and a daily bus ride that long for a 9 year old would worry me more than two pickups.

      I had the same thought. Our daughter's van ride is 35 minutes, and that already feels long at four. If a move is part of the plan, it may help to say so, since people here could then suggest schools near where you would be living.
