Challenges Faced by Independent Schools

Even some great schools across India face common academic constraints that limit exams

No Foundation Programme

Lack of structured foundation/Olympiad/competitive exam preparation within school system.

Limited Faculty Resources

Teaching staff focused on curriculum completion with limited time for advanced concepts.

No Benchmarking

Students never get to compete outside their school, missing crucial academic benchmarking.

External Coaching Dependency

Parents seek external coaching centers, reducing school's academic value proposition.
