Baldwin Girls High School
One of the oldest schools in Bangalore is Baldwin Girls High School. The Methodist Episcopal School was started under the Methodist Church in 1878. They were renamed Baldwins after a grant from John Baldwin of USA. The Girls school separated from the Baldwin Boys school in 1903 to function separately. The Baldwin Womens Methodist College is attached to it.

Languages offered: French, Kannada, Hindi (not sure about Sanskrit,Bengali and Bengali being offered)
Classes: Nursery till 12th
Class Strength: about 60 students per class.
Admission: Maybe around February, am not sure.
Activities: Swimming, Music, Sports like basketball
Fees: New admission fees of Rs 25,000 and a refundable deposit of Rs. 2000. For languages other than Hindi and Kannada Rs. 1800 per annum. The fees for the whole year ranges from 22,000 to 25,000 including building fees, tution fees, club fees.
Boarders annually have to shell out about Rs.75K(includes mess fees of about 3000 per month, laundry, provisional). New admissions have to pay about Rs.30,000.
Remarks: Compared to Baldwin Boys school, many of my friends prefer the girls school. Teaching is very good in primary classes.I don't know about the higher classes, but the school has maintained its standard.
Update: After writing this post and after some months I got feedback from friends that Baldwin Girls is good enough only for Primary and many parents tend to withdraw girls as they proceed to higher classes. Some of them have been citing peer groups oriented towards more mature attitudes.

PSBB Learning Leadership Academy ( PSBB - LLA )
One of the best schools in Chennai, the PSBB started its Bangalore branch in collaberation with the Brigade Construction Group. A few years back, they split and Brigade started its own school. Padma Seshadri Bala Bhavan (PSBB) Millenium schools have been set up in collaboration Learning Leadership Foundation and PSBB Group of Schools in Chennai.

Admission: In the first week of November 2008, application forms were issued for Rs.300. Admission based on written test and interaction.
Fees: I consider fees to be nominal considering the hike in fees by all other branded ones. Fees is 11,500 per term for three terms. That's going to be about 35K per annum. I guess the bus fees is around 15K per annum. Admission fee of 40K which is non-refundable.
Remarks: Due to the popularity of PSBB Chennai, many from there would consider this school here. I don't know how far this is on par with the Chennai branch. Initially on splitting, Brigade school fared better, but PSBB Bangalore has caught up now. They have wired digital "Smart" Classrooms.
Anyone wishes to share their personal experience, do comment so.

Classes: Nursery till 12th(only in South and North campus)
Activities: They have lots of activites, horse riding, swimming, mini tennis etc. Do check out the individual schools for particulars. They have hobby classes and club activities.
Language options: French, German, Hindi, Kannada
Class Strength: About 30 students per class. Classes extend till H sections also.
Home work: Moderate amount of homework is given.
Admission: For Kindergarten, based on observation/interaction. You have to fill in a registration form(about Rs.600 for brochure), then you will be initimated by email, for a school visit.
For 1st till 11th, there will be written test and after that interaction.
They take into consideration your address, DPSite earlier, siblings in DPS etc.
Admission starts on the last week of November (it was 20th last year and this year too.) and it is followed uniformly in all the DPS Bangalore schools.Registration form can be downloaded from the site ( still the old form has been put up).
Admission tests have been carried out from November till March. Interviews have taken from April first week and results announced till May.
You can post your queries in any of the DPS sites you are interested. Be it admission or transport.
Fees: In 2007-2008 the north campus charged 25K per annum(Excluding bus; including tution, magazine,activities, misc) Check out here.
A report in Mid-Day suggested that the fees for 2008-2009 was 4900 per term, then they increased it to 6150 per quarter in 2009-2010.So the tution fees must be around 25K.
(Updated on 22 Oct, 2009): I asked around and was told the admission fees plus refundable deposit comes to around 50K. Annual fees is around 25K (primary classes).
The DPS site might state the fees in a few weeks time, so I hope to update then.
Remark: The DPS schools have installed Lyceum, so all the classroom activities, homework, assignments are updated online.
A parent had changed the school for the simple reason that the uniform was white. So I am just updating the school uniform colour here.
A friend of ours had their son admitted in 1st in DPS South, they shifted to Singapore in the middle of the term and it was easy to secure admissions in DPS Singapore for them.
Also more equal importance is laid on extra curriculars as well as studies. No undue pressure and parents need not sit long with their wards for coaching them.
Hope to hear what others have to say. Do share in your views.
