Why do we have to study? Why is it important for children to go to school and learn? What is the importance of education?
In the hustle-bustle of life, we often forget the importance of education and the place it holds in our lives. School is just another part of our lives that we want to finish off before advancing to the next level. Many schools today also seem to just provide textbook education and help children pass from one grade to the other. There are only a few that educate children with the big picture, the true goal in mind: bringing a change in the society. Meridian School in Banjara Hills is an example of these few schools.
With a motto to provide transformational education, the school consistently adapts the latest teaching dynamics and is always abreast with the developments in the field of education. Meridian School for Boys and Girls is one of the top CBSE schools in Hyderabad today, and the credit goes to the management’s coherent efforts to provide a launchpad for children to reach their ambitions.
Currently, the school also has branches in Kukatpally, Madhapur, and Jubilee Hills. The Jubilee Hills branch is the Meridian KIDS campus.
Easily accessible from all parts of the city!
Conveniently located in Banjara Hills, Meridian School has the best of everything right from smart classrooms to multi-play areas and activity rooms.
The school buses ply across the city making the commute easier and hassle-free for parents.

What is the Fee Structure of Meridian School?
The annual fee at Meridian school for Class Pre-Primary is Rs. 6000-75000
For Primary is Rs. 90000-1,00,000, Middle class is Rs. 1,05,000-1,10,000, Secondary is Rs.1,10,000-1,20,000
We think that’s quite decent owing to the fact that Meridian is one of the best schools in Hyderabad today and offers world-class facilities to its students. If you compare the fee with others in its league, you will see that it is more or less the industry standard. In fact, it is cheaper to study at Meridian than at other top schools that offer pretty much the same facilities.
What’s the teaching methodology?
Meridian School predominantly follows the CBSE curriculum integrated with STEM. Recently, it became an IB Candidate School for the Primary Years Program.
Thus, in the future, we can expect the school to offer a full-fledged IB curriculum for all classes. The school has classes from nursery to class XI.
