IDEAL INDIAN SCHOOL
WE ARE TRYING TO SELECT A SCHOOL FOR OUR TWO CHILDREN... FROM WHAT WE HEAR AND AFTER ASSESSING ALL ANGLES SUCH AS OPTIMUM SCHOOL FEES, OPTIMUM QUALITY OF EDUCATION, SATISFACTORY AMBIENCE, FACILITIES (DON'T NEED TOO MUCH, BUT OPTIMUM), ETC., WE HAVE COME TO CONCLUDE IDEAL INDIAN SCHOOL IS THE BEST. WE HAVE SPECIALLY HEARD THAT THE SCHOOL HAD A MAJOR ISSUE FOR A LONG TIME WITH THEIR PRINCIPAL MOHAMED HARUN KHAN MAINLY DUE TO WHOSE ARROGANT CHARACTER, THEIR NAME WAS BECOMING WEAKER, BUT HE IS NOW REMOVED. IT IS KNOWN TO BE A BIG RELIEF FOR ALL TEACHERS AND STUDENTS, SO THIS MAKES BIG ROOM FOR REVIVAL OF THEIR ALMOST SUBDUED GLORY. THIS SCHOOL HAS BEEN IN EXISTENCE FOR QUARTER OF A CENTURY NOW AND IS A SEASONED INSTITUTION, SO THE EXPERIENCE SHOULD HELP HOPEFULLY. FROM WHAT WE HEARD, IT IS NOT THE BEST FROM ALL ANGLES, BUT AT THE PRICE IT SERVES THE COMMUNITY, THERE IS DEFINITELY NO INDIAN SCHOOL COMPARABLY BETTER IN QATAR. ALL THE OTHERS ARE COMMERCIAL AND COULD HAVE VESTED INTERESTS THAT GO WITH BUSINESSES.
IDEAL INDIAN SCHOOL PRODUCED THE TOPPER IN 2009 12TH GRADE BOARD EXAMS IN QATAR PLUS MANY BOYS AND GIRLS WITH OVER 90% OVERALL MARKS, ALONG WITH MANY OTHER SUBJECT TOPPERS, THIS KIND OF RESULT SURE IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST INDICATORS OF THE QUALITY OF EDUCATION PROVIDED BY THE SCHOOL.
FROM SOME GOOD FRIENDS WE MADE, WE ALSO HEARD THAT THEY ARE SHIFTING NEXT YEAR (2010) TO A BRAND NEW AND OWN CAMPUS WITH A LOT OF FACILITIES AND AMENITIES FOR THE BETTERMENT OF THE CHILDREN OF SOCIETY. GIVEN ALL THIS, FIRST WE WOULD LIKE TO SHARE OUR VIEWS WITH THIS QATAR LIVING COMMUNITY AND ALSO LIKE TO TAKE YOUR VALUABLE FEEDBACKS.
alfa Q is rite to an extent, Ideal has some issues. But the school is a good education provider. I had studied there for 12 years and am doing good in life, all thanks first to my school.
Their efforts to raise building funds have now materialised, because they are shortly moving into the new campus in 2010, which is supposed to be well planned.
About teachers being housewives, I think there are good and bad teachers in every school. The salaries of the Indian schools like Shantinikethan, Ideal and MES are lower than international schools.
"If you leave the smallest corner of your head vacant for a moment, other people's opinions will rush in from all quarters" - George Bernard Shaw
If you can afford & have a working wife then DMIS is the best as they have day boarding & provide lunch & recreation facility.
MES is good for higher classes as they have experienced teachers with proven record.
DPS & BPS are better than Ideal in all counts.
Ideal does not have proper school building & half the classrooms are just porta cabins. Students have been made to sell lottery tickets for school building funds from last many years. Some managing committee members were deported recently. Most of the teachers were house-wives & their salaries are less then one third of their counterparts in international schools.

Ideal school principal was very good. He showed good result 2008-09 in Board exam. Every where some plus and Minus is there.
MES is the best
majority of the students in all schools are from Kerala.
thanks Bharti915 for your opinion. I am from the northern part of India. I have heard that majority of the children in Ideal and MES are from Kerala.
I THINK MES SCHOOL IS BETTER THEN IDEAL SCHOOL,BUT IF YOU ARE NORTHINDIAN THEN ITS BETTER YOU PUT YOUR CHILD IN BIRLA PUBLIC SCHOOL OR DPS.
Dear verisimilitude, sorry that you feel like that, but we are trying to take sincere opinions on the Indian schools. We wrote what we heard, if its positive, its only because that's what we heard. Now if you feel the motive is for cheap publicity, that's your perspective. But we have explained ourselves.
Do you guys know any info/opinion about Doha Montessori and British School and International school of London in Qatar???
Cheers...
This forum topic reads like an advertisement in disguise
Besides, what does a parent have to do with a schools commercial interests even if it has any as long as they are giving their students good education
I don't have anything against Ideal Indian School... I think its a decent school but mshah is giving it some cheap publicity and the motive is questionable
mshah....So u accept to be the "loser"....so be it.. and thanks for the advice, am off this thread having the last laugh....

"THERE IS DEFINITELY NO INDIAN SCHOOL COMPARABLY BETTER IN QATAR. ALL THE OTHERS ARE COMMERCIAL AND COULD HAVE VESTED INTERESTS THAT GO WITH BUSINESSES."
Somebody saying this either advertizes the school or he is a complete idiot if he is still in doubt!
Ideal was a good school...only that Principle had a bad reputation.
Now that he has been kicked out....children & good teachers will once again go to that school
Not your again happygolucky, its not your lucky day today. We dont want your comments anymore, no focus whatsoever. Thanks, BYE, (get the message?)
Dear mshah... u said it urself that none have yet answered to what u are looking for... dont you think there is something wrong in how u asked for the info.... ... take ur time and may be u can re word it better to get the response u are looking for...just a friendly advice..
and u said something about "lies"... where, how...can u pl. elaborate...

Now that's a valid comment, thanks Stealth.
well he just wanted to say the school has removed the principal under whose stewardship the school was able to produce the topper in Qatar.
This is how the management thanked the Principal for his efforts.
With this the school management has shown that they dont care for the interests of the students but only their vested interests.
This should be an eye opener to the parents to not let their wards join this school.
happygolucky, you don't seem very happy-go-lucky. From the responses here, you can see as much as I can that none of them have yet focussed on answering the question but making comments of suspicion like you. From your statement that you are not a friend of the removed principal, you are pouring more concrete on your lies :-)
mshah... re read your post... its all so wrong.... only u could not see it even from the response from others including me ... and for your info...neither I am a friend of the removed principal nor I am him... and by picking on people here u are not going anywhere if u are really looking for what u mean...

hahaha nice one stone Cold
Thats a marching order..yindia. thought you a qatari. Retype it in small cap if you will.
did your school teach you not to write/type in capitals??
I hope the school you choose for your children teaches them not to write/type in capitals.
dear happygolucky
from your response it seems like you are either a very good friend of that removed principal or you are him ... :-)
from your post it looks like u are seeking peoples opinion about the school after the removal of the principal u named and not for ur children....

Please be nice and give us your opinions...
"WE HAVE COME TO CONCLUDE IDEAL INDIAN SCHOOL IS THE BEST". Why the hell, if you came to that conclusion, are you still bothering QL? Do you wanna hear this: No, no, it's a rubbish school, or what?
We are new to Qatar, only about a month old.. brought the family down only a few days earlier... and are just settling down.
We heard a lot about this school, plus and minus and many of the new friends we made said to take opinions online from this Qatar living community... so we decided to come here...
Did not expect to have such a hostile response to start with, hope our intention is made clear now with the above statements.
you have been a member for less than an hour.
are you here to promote this school or select a school for your two or more counting children..
My eyes are bleeding! Turn off your CAPS please!!!
huh
