Beware of these schools

It's been a painful experience reading the newspapers regarding the torture little kids have gone through in Bangalore. What pains more, is the insensitive nature of the schools towards the scenario and their failure to take appropriate measures to curb such acts.

For future parents, I am posting and continue to do so, the schools which have failed to be earnest in their behavior.

Vibgyor School, Marthahalli
Orchid International School, Jalahalli
Cambridge School, Indira Nagar

Hats off - people of Bangalore!

Hats off to all of the supporters, parents who got together to fight against what had been done to a small child. A school by protecting its sinful staff is putting the rest of the kids in danger. Is a school's name more important than a child's life?

Irresponsible and insensitive

It was a shocking news when I read today's paper. The headlines of a small child being raped on school permises by the gym staff (Vibgyor School near Varthur and Kundanahalli ) and the irresponsibility of the school administration is just not tolerable. Who knows how many children have been affected and how many complaints have proved ineffective against the staff.
