Review for The Pupil Tree, Bangalore
Will not recommand Pupil tree for following reasons
By Anonymous - Posted on February 6th, 2009
I will not recommand Pupil tree to anybody for following reasons:
- Nothing good about teaching methodology , its all same like any other very-2 normal play-school
- Fees is too high and doesn't justify in any way
- Schools timings starts from 8:30am, but even their Van reach school around 9ish
- They don't have their own transport, they take services from others, their Van never follow any particular time. same van picks all kids hence routing is very bad and for 2-3 kms. kids are in Van for almost 45-60 minutes
- They don't even have any standard for vehicle they hire, bus can even have some temporary bench inside the van ( maruti Van)
- They charge exorbitantly (2000Rs.) per month
- They have evn stopped diary update, so there is no communication to the teacher on a daily basis, you need to call them. they don't even see diary if parents have written any thing in diary
- They have lots of toys, books and stuff which will impress you when you go for your first visit, but mostly of no use as kids hardly get to use them
I am also in same boat, I have not seen such a pure management so far, atleast AECS layout center head is pathetic.
These guys are ridiculas and can't even manage Van even after paying 2000/- per month. Who knows what they do it in class as those things are not visible to parents, but I don't see any thing which my kid would have learnt from school except 3-4 rhymes.
Their mouth is big like a whale w.r.t fees and transportation but not even comparable to kid-zee, euro kids etc. in providing services.
i don't know how many of you noticed that on their site, they say school timings are from 8:30am to 12:30pm, but schools always starts at 9:00am and ends at 11:30 itself.

Pupil Tree remains the worst mistake i made in my child's life. Will not recommend the school to anyone. I am not sure about the other centers but the Brookefields branch was a disaster. The safety of your child, the transportation, the communications, feedback, the fiasco called annual events, everything was compromised. Think twice, ask around, there are better options available.
Infact anything would be better than Pupil Tree
