School fees in Bangalore
I was talking to a colleague at office and got shocked to hear that he is paying around 5 lakhs per annum for his 4 year old kid who just goes to a play school.
Looks like there has been major inflation in education and I've been out of touch of this. I remember even top private schools having max monthly fees around 5k some 10 years back.
Folks with kids in Bangalore, how are you managing your child's education and how much do you spend on it? Are there any cheap alternatives like KV/govt schools?
Also, with education getting so expensive it would definitely act as a deterrent for couples to have kids !

Woah, for 5L is better be like one of those schools shown in movies, on a mountain top in dehradun types 🤯
I studied in Dehradun and except few schools we don’t have that expensive schools . Also Dehradun is a valley not on a hill top ðŸ˜
For 5l you can hire an engineering grad who will teach everything to the kid and baby sit him tbh
Bangalore is way overrated. Became worst City of India.
I think you'll have schools of all types. 5L is way too much and could be charged by some International school. The norm usually ranges between 80k to 2L per year depending on the school. I pay around 1.7 for my 4 year old's school. The fees are usually dependant on various factors like curriculum and even the areas.
Don't expect these high-priced schools to provide a better education for your child. Go for convents or trust Vidyalaya or usual CBSE schools like DAV/DPS, which are under your budget, and save something for kids extracurricular activities that kids have an interest in. With these high-fee schools, you will always feel cheated by the value you get for the kind of money you are paying them.
5 lac way too high, might be some international school. Generally fees range in 1.2 lacs to 2.5 lacs.
Lmaoo i studied in ICSE for 12 years in 5l . Thank god i dont wanna have children . Yikers..
Ps: school doesn’t make children smart anymore. Extra curricular activities and parents attitude at home help most or maybe thats what i wish i had.
Alternate solution: Go abroad to the U.S., UK etc where taxes are still high but the education is free, good public infra etc.
