Is schooling only about a classroom, a blackboard, and a teacher? Maybe it was until a while ago, but things have changed drastically and for the good of our future generations.
Children spend a lot of time at school. It is like a second home where they learn to face the world and stand independently. It is where they take their first steps and lay the foundation for the future. It is only fair that they are given a nurturing, wholesome environment that encourages them to tap into their own talents. That is why the infrastructure of a school matters just as much as the faculty and the teaching methodology.
Hyderabad has, thankfully, risen to this challenge. Many schools in Hyderabad have the outstanding infrastructure. Here are details about some of the best:
