Harassment And Bullying
Feb 04, 2024 11:02 PM 437 Views (via Mobile)

My daughter used to study in this school. My daughter was subjected to ragging and humiliation and mental harassment by the principal herself (woman) and the other faculties of this school. Moreover, the arrogant extremist principal instructed my daughter's classmates to bully and rag her as well and not to speak with my daughter. As a result, I had to pull out my daughter out of this school and transfer her to another school. The environment of this school is toxic and filled with politics and favouritism. Extremely unprofessional behaviour and management. As a parent, I am disgusted and displeased with the administration, and outraged at the principal ( woman ). Please it's kind request don't send your ward in this school, and ruin their life , and make the same mistake I made.


Unprofessional Management

Very unprofessional administration and management.


Unqualified teachers are hired to teach students. This school is more concerned about if the student is wearing the school uniform properly or not, rather than their academics and performance. Your child will suffer the consequences later in life, when they won’t be able to cope up with the cut throat competition in the real world after passing from this silly school. They will fill your ward’s mind with delusional, illogical and irrational ideologies and beliefs . In my opinion, this school nurtures weak alumni.


It is run by an incompetent, mentally unstable and delusional woman. The principal has a bad habit of poking nose into the private and personal lifestyles of the students outside school, which shouldn’t really concern them in the first place.Extremely backdated school and filled with medieval thinking atmosphere. The environment of this school is toxic and uptight.


One funny incident I encountered, one crazy day, the principal ordered to uninstall all the mirrors from every girls washroom because she doesn`t like girls powdering their face and applying lip balms during lunch breaks and other spare time. She feels physical attributes and outer appearance is a superficial stuff. So, remember there are no mirrors in any girls washroom.


Save your ward by not taking admission in this trash / shitty place.

A school that cares

My experience with Dolna Day School is a beautiful one. Children love its environment. It has a good teacher- student ratio. The teachers are diligent and caring. Extra curricular activities help in the growth of every student.

Just like every school this school has its pros and cons ...the school takes limited no. Of students with the intention of giving personal attention to each and every student and has various extracurricular activities to offer ...bt it lacks in a proper playing field and sports equipments .Dolna starts its morning with refreshing songs of Tagore and believes in Tagores philosophies which is excellently carried out by songs dances and poems bt it also suffers from lack of cultural diversity ..though English songs are taught in this school other forms of western art like beatboxing, aerobics, are gravely frowned upon . The children grow up as responsible individuals bt with absolutely no exposure in sports . No sports days are held , instead children are coaxed with musicals and annual programmes which for sure increases their sense in art forms bt despite having talents in sports are not explored and polished by the school authorities ...Chistmas fete is celebrated with grandeur and Saraswati Puja is celebrated in a unique way portraying the 'Brahma ' philosophy of God has no shape .


This school gives tons of holiday homework to the students even to higher classes like 10, 11and 12 which turns out to be a liability for the students because the holiday could otherwise have been used for council assignments and projects .


Children of Dolna tend to be weak in maths and science subjects bt perform extraordinarily well in English and Bengali ..performance of Dolna is very good in ICSE bt performs moderately in ISC . In +2, Dolna is the right school to study in if a student wishes to Persue with English , Bengali, history or geography in future bt not so much if he/she has other plans . Music is given great emphasis upon in Dolna so anyone having interest in Music and future plans for it are strongly recommended for this school...

In a 40 minutes period 5 to 15 minutes is always wasted.


Teachers are not always in class on the correct time.


Sometime they do not follow the syllabus given by the ICSE curriculum.


They focus more in cultural activities than in academics.


There are no annual sports held in the school.


The students play in a small garden.


Very disappointed with the Behavior I received

I'm truly disappointed with the Administrations of this school. The office staffs are arrogant and often will tell you things which are not written in their prospectus. If you are a working parent who wants to put their child in good care, this is not the school.


Whilst the academic and the extra-curricular activities show certain promise the behavior of the office staffs are simply horrendous. They have no respect for your jobs and profession.

I shifted recently to Kolkata from New Delhi so didn't know much about the schools here. This Dolna school is nearby from my place so I decided to take my 2 yrs old daughter here.Initially she was not happy as this was her first school but later on she got adjusted to it.Now she doesn't like holidays, she misses her friends and teachers. I must say teachers helped her a lot to feel comfortable in school.She mainly loves the way teachers tell stories in class. Though she is too small but now she is learning new things and socializing also.Sometime we get amazed that she know about so many things.


A school from creache to class 12
Jul 15, 2015 03:00 AM 24150 Views

Dolna Day School is located in South Kolkata, in a place named Kasba, which is very near to Gariahat Market.


Here a child can be kept from the age of 3 months as a child care creche. and the same child can start his student life here and can come out as a bright young student passing 10+2 exam with flying colors!


Dolna Day School is a well known name in the field of education. mainly child education. Students are taught here with proper care and affection. Children are like flowers and this school takes right care to get the flowers blossomed .


The school follows the ICSE curriculum and students are around 800 in numbers only. Actually, this is the first creache of Kolkata founded in the year 1972 . and Dolna is a bengali word which means cradle. Slowly but steadily, this creache has upgraded in to a senior secondary school. It is a day boarding school and kids of working parents prefer this one as a reputed, safe and secured place till date. The school authority is cautious enough to maintain the creache and day boarding system at its best and so they have not increases the student intake much more their capacity. So, every single child is rest assured of getting extreme care and love while studying here.


The classes conducted here are divided in to following breakdown:


Play School  and LKG( 2-4 years old)


Upper Nursery and Preparatory(4-6 years old)


Primary( Class I to V)


Secondary( Class VI to X)


Senior Secondary( XI -XII)


They perform quite good at both ICSE and ISC examinations and passed out students often get chance to study in top quality colleges in Kolkata.


This school has a strong alumni network and some of them have made it real big in life. Bengali actor and director Parambrata Chatterjee has spent his primary school life in Dolna Day School.


Dolna Day school can be a handy choice  for working parents and your child is sure to get best quality of education, best care with affection .


It is quite popular school in South Kolkata and I recommend it.
