@verisi - Our effort is not at all to convey that MES is a bad school. If it was bad enough, I don't think we should have bothered to try any of this !
What we want to highlight is the gradual (and sometimes accelerated) deterioration of the school, because the administration is proud about the size, and somewhat about the marks.
Now if we take marks alone, that is a whole another story. Marks are driven by "canned notes" and "private tuitions". Many teachers make it a point to skim through lessons in regular classes, only to ensure that students come to them for "private tutoring". Students who needed private tutoring at MES do not feel the need for the same at other schools, because of how topics are covered in the class itself, and because of the personal attention teachers are able to afford (due to smaller student to teacher ratios).
But the management seems to have no plans at all to improve the student to teacher ratio. They rely on the greed of teachers to improve marks, and then trumpet that as an achievement. If you build a personal relationship with a few teachers who are even half honest, you will get the true picture of what MES had become off-late.
