Myriad of Cultures Bangalore is a cosmopolitan town, encompassing thousands and thousands of people from all over the world who either come in search of work or to settle down. Amidst such a vibrant culture, one’s own identity might feel lost or forgotten; especially the small ones who get transferred from one school to another find it quite difficult to cope up with kids of other schools. This is where International schools are trying to fill the gaps in the lives of these little ones, so that they don’t feel neglected. International Schools in Bangalore are well established and are becoming quite a rage especially with parents who are in frequently transferable jobs. Due to a high intake of wards in a public school, there lies no scope whatsoever to pay individual attention to each and every student in a class. Therefore, in a long term process, lack of proper attention limits the growth of a student and affects in several other ways. Creativity has become a dead aspect ever since teachers fail to discover the hidden talent of a student. In international schools, the best part about them is that they follow what is known as the "NCLB" rule as it is termed in US, which implies as, "No Child Left Behind" rule. The faculty of international schools are quite particular about the lives of individuals. Regarding the child’s progress, there are continuous meetings held with every parent to discuss important academic and behavioural development matters. Curriculum of international schools is quite different as compared to other big schools in Bangalore students are usually graded on the basis of their performance in continuous assessments carried on a regular basis. This boosts up the morale of children, as they are not only graded upon their bookish knowledge of the syllabus. Also, if they don’t perform well in one test they always have a chance to make it up in their next tests. Schools allow the students to come up with their innovative ideas, instead of trying to clip their wings of imagination. Another fascinating aspect of being in an international school is that it there exists a multitude of cultural essence, which allows the kid to not only learn about different language, culture, religion and race but also teaches the child to respect it and stay in harmony with one another. International school might me expensive to afford, but they are definitely not a waste of time. Because, with the level of hygiene, attention, care and guidance it surely passes across other schools in town.
