Their school bus drivers are reckless, I have seen it multiple times they even dare to dash other vehicles and pedestrians. I was worried about the children's safety, and I tried reaching out to the school, but no one answered. Seems like they don't care about safety at all.

My kid was in DPS from 2020-2022 (1st & 2nd class). Sharing my personal experience as it may benefit many. Pros : *The teaching was good. Satisfied. *All the teachers were fluent in English. *The examination papers are too good. Very logical. The questions do not come directly from the lessons/books provided. Only if the kid understands the concept very well, only they will be able to score well. They provide worksheets to understand the type/pattern of questions expected in the exams. This is very helpful.. Attempting these type of exams gets kids acquainted to face Indian competitive exams. They have weekly tests too. Cons : * Class strength is high (39). Hence the teachers cannot pay individual attention. This is not a suggestable approach atleast till 5th std. * The contact no of the class teacher is not provided and no official whatsApp group exists to discuss anything common with the teacher. The only point of contact is the coordinator who is responsible for the whole class (about 400 strength - not exactly sure of the no) . Since the strength is more, the coordinator cannot respond fast or do not give time to discuss/listen if our kid is lagging anywhere. Moreover since they don't teach our kid, they can only answer common questions but cannot address our child needs. *PTMs are the only source to connect with the class teacher. The time allocated for each student is less than 5min. They share good suggestions in the PTM but if our kid has major problems and we need their support, they don't hear much. They try to wind it fast. So doesn't suit for all the kids. * If the kids personally do something creative or for the activities given as homework, I never heard teachers appreciating or sharing constructive feedback. As a results the kids won't find much joyful with the school environment. The kid will have the feeling of always studying as there is no much discussions going between kids & teacher. *If the kid is absent/lagging in the class in writing notes, there is no notes shared by the school for reference. We have to call the parents/friends which is ideally very difficult. *They don't bother much of concerns or suggestions/improvements given to them. * Every year they conduct survey for dining but they end up not providing the facility. As DPS has a very huge strength, I really wonder not even 500 kids opt for lunch when the school bus ideal pick up time is 7am. Why do they conduct surveys for something they are not ready to provide. *No Annual day. Only Theme Assembly. * No focus on hand writing. They didn't atleast teach cursive handwriting.

**** Must read ***** I am a disappointed parent who withdrew my children from this school this academic year. The school did not show any concern when I withdrew them from their institution. Why would anyone in a money-making educational business care if you stay or leave? I have observed several issues with the school. - Firstly, the school is overpopulated with over 4000 students and still admitting more. - Secondly, the student-teacher ratio per class is 45-50:1, which is unacceptable. - Thirdly, there is no direct communication with teachers and instead, concerns must be raised through a non-teaching middleman called a coordinator who takes their sweet time to respond. - Finally, the admission front desk staff's behavior gives you an impression that the school is accepting applications for a medical seat. It is surprising that even in 2023, there are schools that operate in this manner. These schools are often hidden behind a big brand name "DPS," and parents must ensure that the place where their child is studying is proper before enrolling them. I learnt my lesson and pulled them out without any second thoughts. The decision of whether to enroll your child in a big branded school or a school with strong ethical values is in your hands. The choice is yours to make. Jai Hind.

I will touch few aspects with my review. 1. School accepts any number of students, though it is crowded by all means, they keep add new students. I think most of the parents going by brand like we did. 2. With thousands of students, can't they maintain the school environment neat and clean, it is mostly dust, no proper plantation. Look at the school building, it was painted several years back and looks rustic since 4 years, even Govt. schools are keep renovated with Naadu/Nedu, do they need someone to tell your school looks dull and faded. 3. Not sure on logic of their transport fee, it is almost 40% of school fee. It is very high compared to other schools, which is going to be burden on parents packets apart from school fee. 4. They outsource books, school uniforms etc. to third party, DPS sports uniform quality is pathetic, within 1/2 months entire color is faded, and students has to wear such color gone uniform otherwise parents has to buy multiple times. 5. Their number of PTMs/parents interaction is very less, so no opportunity for parents to talk about feedback/receive suggestions. 6. DPS Miyapur education is no difference from any other schools, mostly parents has to take care of their kids growth and have to give lot of attention. Don't go by brand for school selection. DPS school management not putting any effort in listening to feedback and not thriving for overall students welfare. There is no passion from DPS side on school, as they get students because of it;s brand they won;t pay attention further. Google reviews is one of prestigious public opinion platform, they even not caring to see it's reviews means we can understand how much they are interested in school growth.

This is like old schools and they are using the old teaching techniques. Listing below: 1. Too much children in one class. No student ratios maintained. Specifically for kindergarten it should be max 1: 12 teacher student ratio. 2 only focus on writing . No focus on phonics. Children don’t know how to start reading with phonics sound.Parent only have to spend time with child. Can’t expect from school to focus on reading skill as they have so many children in the class and it is definitely difficult for the teacher to manage. 3 They won’t listen even if a parent is giving some good ideas 4. Good teachers will leave early. 5. For kindergarten students timings is too early. In summer it is okay but in winter’s it is like a torture for the small children. If studies are important same way physical growth is also important. Because of early morning stress it may affect the child growth. Now the points listing below for upper classes. 1. No attention for the questions raised by a child. If your child have taken the admission. After clearing their so called entrance test they will give importance to the children who are previously studying in the school, even if your child is very intelligent. 2 . Intelligent children are learning to pull down each others rather making them learn to grow together. 3. No doubt student are becoming smarter but who will fool the other person in a smarter way. 4. Not a single Saturday was working offline. It was all online . Online classes are all chaos. I am really surprised how they must have manger the 2 years of online classes. There will no break in online classes. They will expect children to sit continuously for more than 3 hours. No screen break in the online time table class. If they are doing so in online classes god knows what will be happening in the school. 5 . They will never let you see your child class. We dint even knew where my child class is. 6. Sometime the light use to go and there is no generator and children have to sit in that condition only. It is really a torture for everyone. 7 . There are many points but I am finishing my review here and as I know the management is not even bothered to listen any suggestions but I would just want to suggest one thing that: “ As a school you are creating the future generation of India and as a teacher we should train them to be entrepreneurs “
