Parent Testimonials

Pratikshya Purnachandra, Batch of 2019-20
A good school gives you an education and a great school empowers you to use your education. I will always be grateful to the choices I made at RBKIS, all of them- IGCSE, AS and A level, because they were quite literally the wind beneath my wings. RBKIS is where my interest in Neuroscience first took root. The exposure to the criticals of the Nervous system in my A level course changed my outlook towards the subject and inspired me to pursue the study of it for life. Having teachers who believed in me every step of the way was critical to exploring and leaving my comfort zone which prepared me and helped me during my first year at University. Thanks to the nurturing environment with emphasis on culture and relationships, RBKIS has given me friends and mentors for life. The years I spent here have shaped my direction for the future.
It was only once I started college that I fully appreciated my schooling years at RBKIS. It was thanks to my AS and A level subject choices (Chemistry, Physics, Bio, Math, English) that I got do many transfer credits that allowed me to pursue a double major with Honour’s at an university like IUPUI.
Today as I pursue my dual degree with an emphasis on Health Administration and Neuroscience, my experiences throughout school be it IGCSE or AS and A levels come back vividly as they encouraged me to explore both my interest in science and commerce in fiction academically, while being able to develop a world view. Between the rigorous coursework, the hangouts in the corridors, the dedication of my teachers, and the lifelong friendships, RBKIS gave me more than I could've asked for and still influences me in every facet possible!

Dear Ma'am,
Below is a short testimonial about how pursuing IGCSE helped shape me as an individual:
Generally, to be successful, we are often told one must attain a high school diploma, go to college, and get a degree in a specific field of study. However, there is not much value to schooling unless education helps us become better people to make an impact. My roots go back to my IGCSE curriculum which has increased my critical thinking, broadened my knowledge and honed my skills. IGCSE is very good for people who enjoy being in control of their own learning at their own time. You are made to be independent, responsible, organised and are always encouraged to think beyond the box.
Following the IGCSE curriculum has also provided me with a better understanding of the business world. Through subjects such as economics, business studies, and accounting, not only have I learnt what goes into building a business from scratch but also what makes these businesses resilient and robust in challenging times. Studying at RBK has surely shaped me to become prepared for my future career and contribution to society.
I have completed International Management from the Rennes School of Business, France and have studied Canine Care at the British College of Canine Studies.
Please find enclosed with this email a picture of me as well.

With the whole COVID-19 situation, a lot of teachers have been facing very unique challenges.
The whole situation demanded that they go through digital transformation overnight, open their home and share contact numbers for public viewing, accommodate with little or no teaching resources, get paid less than full monthly salary, teach children while their parents judge them for their teaching style and many more such challenges.
My appreciation and respect for these relentless fighters can’t be expressed in words. I want to salute all the gurus across the world who continued to take on the challenges that were thrown at them. They cared for children’s learning more than anything else.
Kudos to the teachers’ fraternity at RBK. I salute to your relentless spirit.

Mrs. Chhaya Shrivas, RBKEI Parent
The online virtual class is a very good approach taken up by RBKEI.
I really appreciate the efforts taken by homeroom teachers. My son, Reyansh is showing keen interest in these virtual sessions. He, along with other kids are getting valuable education rather than just sitting unoccupied at home.
Reyansh gets very happy to see his teachers & classmates online. These virtual sessions help him understand each and everything taught by the teacher. He promptly answers the questions asked by the teacher during the sessions, as our teachers are making the kids understand the concept as per the comfort level of kids.
Really appreciate this initiative.

Priyanka Mehta (M/o Riva Mehta -7A)
With Covid-19 showing no signs of decreasing and the second wave on its way – exams had to be conducted online for the first time. This not only made it different but a new learning experience as well. It was a really great thing for the school to still conduct exams online and in a way it didn’t hamper the students or their learning. We as parents were asked to supervise the children or keep a back camera. I believe that this was a good initiative by the school to teach academic honesty and instill IB learning and beliefs at such times as well. In all, I believe that this whole arrangement and planning was done very well and was thought out excellently.

Jesal Shah (M/o Arjun Shah -7A)

Our heartfelt gratitude to The Management, Principal Ms. Monica Sarang and teachers for extending Nivya such a large platform to showcase her talent!!She is an ardent fan of Taylor Swift and wants to walk in her footsteps to perform like her! Nivya came as an introverted girl to RBKIA last year, but now we can see her maturing into a responsible teenager! She owes this confidence to her teachers. We, as her parents, express great appreciation for all your constant support coming her way! Nivya has always been interested in music & Mr Felix Hug is guiding her to hone her skills elegantly with his honest feedback, yet with words of encouragement. Special thanks Ms. Meera Rangarajan for her reassurance for making this really happen! Proud parents of Nivya, we are, say,”Opportunities, a galore at RBKIA!”
Regards
