Hi, I am pretty sure that the proposed school with in the Empyrean will not be ready when people move in. At best a kindergarten might be there. So which schools are you considering for your kids if you are planning to move to the Empyrean? The schools near Sarjapur are at least 17-20km away and I doubt if they will provide transport to Empyrean if we are not considerable in numbers. -Balu
There is Greenwood High on Sarjapur area. Then are other schools like India International School, Inventure Academy, TISB, etc.
Yes but they are about 20Km away and I doubt if they have transportation towards Empyrean, not unless they get significant numbers. Have you considered/shortlisted any of the schools you listed? And any idea how much is the fee in these schools for KG?
You can also check at the following link http://sarjapur-road.com/schools-at-sarjapur-road for further list of schools.
Hi Bala, I have not yet shortlisted any school yet. Just got the list of schools. You can check the fees by sending mails to the individual school authorities. They will let you know.
Schools like DPS . Greenwood High are 20 kms + from Empyrean. I had spoken to DPS school bus executive and he said that they might contemplate extending bus route to Empyrean if there are 20+ kids for DPS. Is there any other route to reach these schools which does not pass through Sarjapur village? The village road is very narrow and faces frequent traffic jams.
Hi Balbhadra, you have to take right turn from Sarjapur Road onto Sulikunte Village Road for almost 1.5 kms. There is no other way to go to DPS.
Would it make sense to look at schools in Whitefield / Varthur area rather than Sarjapur? I think Whitefield area has some schools with moderate (50-60k per year) ..like Vagdevi Vilas. Distance wise it would be almost similar to Sarjapur but route is virtually signal free till hopefarm junction. If someone has prepared a list of schools (both Sarjapur / Whitefield) with total fee, could it be shared? Also one suggestion, Could we approach a good school with 10+ potential admission and get some respite on 1st yr admission cost?
Approaching the schools (whether in Whitefield or Sarjapur) in a group makes sense. If not for for fee reduction(which should be a definite possibility) at least for the transportation.
