Indus International School, Bangalore

This school is the worst they serve dog food for lunch and the teachers don’t teach. Don’t go here most public schools are better than this school.

Security guard does not allow us to enter the gate I wanted to check the school before making the admission of my cousin brother

I had called and requested for visit to school.person by name Nidhi picked phone and She asked to drop details on WhatsApp which I did. It has been 5 days and still no response. Looks like Admissions people don’t understand what they are supposed to do in their job. Very disappointing experience.

I had called to enquire about a facility, and the person attending the calls at the reception was extremly rude.

Very good management and administration, Teaching staff are very well trained, and supporting staff are equally good.

Security guard & the workers in reception were helpful & nice to me. Their employees especially a woman (respected Ma'am who's working in their HR department team are sus).

They kinda judge you for not carrying a Laptop with you or if you aren't able to make a call due to some device issues.

While I was having conversation with them in office, one respected Ma'am offered me some water, a nice gesture. I guess someone related to their Sports faculty does insider-trading within. Like after negotiating they kinda deal & charge commision in partnership with coaches which isn't professional neither a good sign, turned me off. Am disappointed by this misleading for sure, something dubious with the money part (sort-of). Overall, the school left a bad impact/impression in our eyes.

Rash driving by the driver of the school. No sense of driving. Even in the packed traffic the driver is in hurry and strike the car. Hope school management take special measures against the drivers.

Best school ive been here since grade 7 to grade 10 and ive evolved into a great human being here and the studies here are very good and all of the staff and the students here treat everyone equal and with respect

I attended this school from 2005 to 2008. Some of the worst years of my life by far. Indus was far more interested in ensuring discipline in adhering to wearing the proper uniform or not having long hair/facial hair than actually instilling proper values of respect for others or curiosity. Indus was also happy to immediately suspend or expel students on infractions like criticizing the school administration. Being a teenager is a difficult time emotionally and physically and often results in behavior that one regrets later in life. Indus should have dealt with these issues with compassion, not punishment.

Most of the teachers were also terrible, focusing on more rote memorization than critical thinking. I had far better schooling in my public American high school.

In addition, the students of this school are mostly rich spoiled kids who were also racist to boot. I would hear disparaging comments towards our Korean colleagues on a daily basis.

Edit 10/12/21: Nice job Indus. I definitely attended this school from 2005-2008, why else would I even leave this review? You are telling me you can't find my information for either two reasons:

1. You are completely incompetent and lost all student information from the 2000s.
2. You are making stuff up in order to invalidate the concerns I listed in my review.

Edit 3/16/22: Attached is proof that I attended. This is an e-mail thread I had with one of my teachers regarding the extended essay component of the IB program from 2008. The name of the teacher is crossed out for their privacy.

For the folks reading this, I hope it's clear how the school likes to handle criticism and how they are more concerned about reputation management rather than creating a healthy environment for students. For the administration of Indus, it's better to deny and silence criticism than actually address and improve things.

OK the school is looking good from outside, infrastructure is good and all but why do you have to put so much much pressure on children. Students attend school to learn new things and have fun as well. You don't have to give them loads of homework and expect them to be perfect in each and everything. Senior secondary school is really important and what are schools doing just assigning and assigning work. Especially in this time when students can't even go outside to play or meet their friends stop giving them so much homework they are humans as well and have their own social life. I have myself heard from the students of this school what they think and they only said that they get a lot of homework and don't get time to do things what they really love or want to do.
