Re: Cancellation of admission for J Shriya, in Standard I, for 2010. (Regn No: 12525)
I had taken an admission for my daughter Jonnalagadda Shriya for Standard I, in January 2010, in your esteemed institution. In lieu of that I have already paid the entire fees of Rs. 43,410/-, on 12-Jan-2010, vide HSBC cheque no. 002258 .
At the time of admission, I had just moved to Chennai on a transfer from Visakhapatnam, and the plan was to relocate my family to Chennai. However, over the past few months due to some unforeseen developments, I was not in a position to bring my family and daughter to Chennai. Hence I requested them to cancel the admission and refund the money paid.
The school refused to entertain my request. I complained about this to the Ministry of Education, Dr. Purandeshwari's office. An IAS officer Mr. Kamal Vardhan called me up after receiving the complaint and informed me that he had spoken to the school authorities and the issue would be resolved. After that I called the school authorities multiple times, and despite that they have not refunded my money.
THis is a blatant violation of the consumer laws of the country, by a School that is rated as one of the best in the country. They seem to have no regard to Ministry of Education even.
WOuld request some good soul to take up this case and deliver justice to me. From April 2010, I am literally running from pillar to post to get some justice on this case.

Complaint marked as Resolved 
VIDYASHRAM (CBSE) School, Kolapakkam is one of the worst infra structured
school in Chennai. The buildings are similar to the 11 floor building collapsed
at Moulivakkam. Building structures are so worst. They collect fees only by
way of cash. No cheque’s, DD’s or bank payments are not accepted by this
school. They collect more than the government fixed fees. For fee paid they don’t
give any receipt. They only give a card stating full payment received with out
mentioning the amount. By doing this they are only making BLACK MONEY. My two
daughters are studying in this School. I have paid for 7th std. Rs.34450/- for
UKG Rs.29550/- the above amounts are excluding books. They do not have
experienced teachers. Most of the teachers are parents they are paid nominal salary.
Buildings have started cracking. We are scared what will happen during the
rainy season. Adjacent to the school main gate there is TASMAC liquor bar
operating for the full day. Even the school management is least bothered about
this. In addition to the above for books fee for 7th Std. Rs.4800/- UKG
Rs.2200/- is being collected by the school and for that also no receipt is
being given. The books values are only 50% of the above. Students are being
given project works irrelevant the subject and tortured for immediate
completion. Your kind intervention is highly appreciated

Please decide today [now], Its high time to decide. I strongly agree with the above complaints. If our children continue in this school further we will be loosing our money as well as our children's future. This school will never improve because they are only thinking about the money not the quality of the education after the demise of Sir Dhamodharan.Hat's off to Sir Dhamodharan's service to the quality of education. Please note this vijaya dhasami also they have fixed Rs. 1, 25, 000/- for LKG admission.
I have admitted my Kid in Pre KG in Pon vidayashram, Kolappakam last year and paid the donation amount of 60 K.
Due to personal reason, I couldn't send my kid to school. So admitted in a play school and has informed the school officials that I will admit in LKG after a year. now when I have approached for LKG admission, the management is demanding me to pay 70 K, the entire donation amount. last year they gave receipt only for 15 k and this year they are not giving even that.
These people are doing day light robbery and are covering them up in the name of providing education.
what ethics they can teach our kids when they themselves are so highly unethical.
any parents who want to join hands with me to lodge complaint on this school, please message here. We will try to connect offline.
The charge fees like 53 K for Prekg but they are only giving receipt for 43 K and it seems to be they are making black money and cheating the government. When the management itself cheating the society and government we cannot expect them teach the ethical things to the students.
I am planning to remove my kids and finding out some better school.Again the teachers are very inexperienced and they are not even qualified.Please suggest me some better school in Koallpakam area.
2 Pon Vidyashram gives a sum total of what is needed for any child -so the only choice
3 You want education, values, safety holistic development --only one stop and that is Pon Vidyashram
4 Freedom to do what is right, learning environment congenial atmosphere and learning with fun -The parent choice is only one and that is Pon Vidyasharm
5 Character building, moulding the children and a great plalce to be in for any child is Pon Vidyasharm
Worst management (Only Money minded)
No bothering about kids, because they are not given any value to the teachers, so no quality teachers will work there.
They do not a good competency sprit.
No Proper infrastructure.
The management people doesn't bothering any teachers value.
All management have some slogan to tell only negatives.
Management does not have positive approach to any one, they always de motivate the students and staffs.
they are no more in the race with other organization in this area.
Over all near govt. schools are doing great than this school
Quality of education is not update the mark
very poor administration.
do not spoil your child's education by spending the value instead we can get good education with other grader school
They are collecting money and not even giving the receipts for donation amount which are directly going to black money account.
