Admissions will initially be only for the pre-primary and primary sections. The pre-primary section will have two divisions each to begin with and four divisions each eventually. The six sections of at the pre-primary level will have six activity rooms, apart from the spacious classrooms.
“The ICSE curriculum at our Blue Ridge School is specially designed to cater to a child’s overall development in respect of academics, culture, language and social dynamics,” said the PSCL Managing Director, Mr. Shashank Paranjape, who is also the Chairman Blue Ridge Education Institute. “A part of this endeavour is the high teacher-pupil ratio at the School, which is unprecedented in India. It is 1:12 for the pre-primary and 1:15 for the primary section against the national average of 1:42. As very few schools in India can boast of such a high ratio, the Blue Ridge School will set up a benchmark in this respect for other schools to emulate.” He adds.
Backed by an illustrious tradition of close association with such distinguished institutions of learning as Parle Tilak Vidyalala (Sathe College – Vile Parle), Ramabai Paranjape School (Andheri), Paranjape Vidya Mandir, Kothrud and Maharashtra Vidya Mandal, ( Pune), the Paranjape Schemes Construction Limited (PSCL) now offers at its Blue Ridge Township, the Blue Ridge Public School which has an exceptionally high teacher-pupil ratio, to ensure pedagogic excellence as well as all round development of students at par with global standards.
