😊🙏 many schools in India have the weekend off. All states have different holiday periods. That I can not understand.

I must say I do agree. The pressure is too much on young minds. And they need to have time to play and relax too- which I think there is not enough of it

@@AgnesMann Believe me, pressure is good. It prepares kids for real life. Real life is not a picnic. There must be some reason why Indians are CEOs of global companies - Nadella (Microsoft), Pichai (Google), Narasimhan (Novartis), Narayan (Adobe), Krishna (IBM), Laxman (Starbucks), Devgan (Cadence), Arora (Palo Alto Network), Raghuram (VMWare), Karsanbhai (Emerson), Banga (World Bank), Leena Nair (Chanel), ......and the list goes on. China has a similar population to India, and yet cannot produce global CEOs at this rate. These are all products of the Indian education system.

Competition is high in India.

@@newbiekhyber China cant produce global CEOs because they aren't as proficient in English speaking as Indians. But if you look at their cities they are 100 times better managed than Indian cities.

@@AgnesMann kerala there is 100 percentage literacy, every one gets a univ degree this is due to renaissence in hinduism by great people like ayyankali, narayana guru and missionry activities, and health system is as per european standards, i do agree we have to do more in sports sector and skill development, country is diverse and huge no dearth of talents

Did this affect your score?

@AgnesMann The thing is I didn't study anything but still I went to attend the exam and still got 65%.. I was shocked and surprised...🤣🤣

@ActorACM yes well done !

Yes we will be sending her to the UK for further studies as she just cannot adapt here. Thank you for your kind comment

That’s a fact. But we need all sorts of professionals and good ones too. Else we would only have businessman and entrepreneurs.

Thank you so much for watching.

Wow that’s interesting. Maybe you’re right. Thank you and I think this is the challenging thing for whatever country child moves from and especially at that sensitive age. Are you first time watching the channel?

Thank you so much

It would be better if government improves its facilities and increases medical seats instead of putting students through such atmosphere. Stress is not good for anyone. This is a major reason people move abroad to atleast give their kids a stress free upbringing.

@@dss8983 increasing medical seats is not that easy , it is very difficult .

My kids go to school on Saturdays hence that’s what I was saying.

Thank you so much. Is there any other topic you think I should make the videos on ?

For me it is super interesting, how in Germany the large companies, such as bosch/Porsche etc are hiring indian engineers in masses. Even women. You have to think something is related with the education they are getting.

Thank you Maja. Appreciate the feedback

Two reasons One is the price they are prepared to work for less money and for them it’s a lot more than in India either way so they put a lot of hard work to it (and many lot more hours than they are required) Two they are very good at studying as the pressure was always high in school so they truly learn thoroughly and hence have a good understanding and sound knowledge about their industry One more (bonus reason) In general Indian students are though to be confident and are great “can do attitude “ to the point where there is not a thing they would not know how to do (so even if they can’t do something- they say they can in hope they get hired ) “In general”

​@@AgnesMannwow, how you summarized it. And plus: they are a survivor Nation. Just the heat alone. 🇮🇳

thank you. have you studied in private or gov school. what was your experience like?

Yes your right and I think we might consider going to Poland in near future

European city cleanliness? France, Germany, Belgium, Sweden are doNe and dusTd. England is also done.

@Ok-kr4vt these countries are indeed kept clean. Not just by the government but people too. I must agree with the first comment on that. I’ve been to many countries and indeed the statement is correct

@@AgnesMann I am not talking about cleanliness. I am talking that in 10-15 years, there might be no Sweden and Belgium due to liberal parties and migration from Izlamic countries. France, Germany has also taken lots of them. So, situation has also grown worse there. London's Mayor Sadik Khan also won due to liberals and his community. Only Eastern European countries are good right now in Europe. Examples- Poland, Denmark, Hungary etc.

​@@AgnesMann but indore is clean i also live in indore

Thank you. How are we your experience at school

I’m saying better India has English and India language both … best girls class and separate other boys class very nice 👍🏼

many thanks for your support 💐🙏😊

Yes! What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger

Good video,hope your lovely daughter will get used to the new situation.It is always difficult for girls than for boys.I am sure she is strong girl, will see other benefits of staying in India. There are lots of cultural activities in which she can take part. God bless you all.

@@AgnesMann 😀

Glad you like them!

I guess it depends on the state.

​@@AgnesMann It's same throughout the country, just admission process starts from March and differ statewise.

@harshalhede I don’t know. I was talking about my kids school and many other schools round us have same start time

Yes this is exactly what I’m doing. I spend endless hours talking with her in hope to be her friend so she can feel comfortable and safe to tell me what bothers her. Teenagers are not easy I must say. But I’m glad she does share her worries and tells me what’s happening

@@AgnesMann Hopefully all three kids under good parenting and Indian practical experience will get thru how to be a go getters and make Parents / Nation feel proud of them😊

Thank you. Have you seen our other videos as well?

@@AgnesMann Yes mam am seeing all your videos even I subscribed your channel

Well put and I agree that education here is better than in then UK. I am certain that within 1 year my kids have advanced so much in their education.

My daughter doesn’t have history actually And I have no patience to help both of my boys. Here it’s either tuition or partners who can teach.

I have passed out from ICSE school, standard of education is very much higher then SSC, use to get an upgrade and go directly to class 12.

@nealnorth5555 Oh, so you want to play Grammar game with me ? How about writing "Can't" instead of "Cant". Similarly it's "Don't" and not "Dont". Hope you know the difference ? Also, a sentence begins with a Capital Letter 😊 Oh, by the way, regarding your comment about "specially", it's an adverb. It's used when you want to convey " a particular/special reason". Hence in this case, it's not incorrect to use "specially"

@@PK-nz5rg I will agree with you if I had used a "comparison". Let's understand with an example: E.g. ICSE and CBSE boards are generally accepted to be the Boards of choice for Engineering/Medical exams "especially" (here it means better than/exceptional than the other) CBSE board. Let's understand how "specially" can be used with an example. E.g. CBSE is preferable for Class 11 & 12 "specially"(here it means specifically) if you are preparing for Engg/Med exams. The difference between "specially" and "especially" is nuanced.

This is indeed the main issue but I can’t fix that. She cannot open to people here are the minute she does they don’t understand her struggles as they come from different environments. Kids are kids and especially if they don’t see her point (about what she dislikes ) they won’t like to hang around with her. Now she’s at that point where she is afraid to be open just for this reason. Her bad luck was that the once’s she did open up to were not good ones and she learned her lesson. Sad but true

@@AgnesMann it's ok but still keep on encouraging her and tell her it's ok if they don't understand her , she can be with others no need to be disheartened there are better people, they do exist, not all are same ... you know old proverb: rome was not built in a day. She tried that is a sign of progress, welcome it. Don't loose hope it's only a slow pace but progress is there. Another reason take note is you are in tier 2 or tier 3 city so you have lesser western thinking, habits, mindset kids/people around you, if you ever so need in future consider moving to major 'Tier 1' city which feels like London and in that too only select and live in posh locality for example South Delhi and similar in Mumbai ... there your girl will find like minded friends and feel more at home at ease. And meanwhile I'll give you a top tip: take your daughter out daily in the evening to new places, markets, or places of different errands in your surroundings, try not to repeat any spots. This will give her things to talk, start a conversation, able be a bit more outward when she's within potential friends. You always have the option to move to a tier one city if so then do sooner for your daughter before your boys get attached with their new friends. Basically do all necessary to give your daughter friends she needs in teenage ... do all it takes she'll thank you later 👍🏻😊 give her social life. You focussing her on French is also a major hurdle, put her on Hindi so she can co-relate with her upcoming new friends easily and know when some of them are ill talking behind her back, this seems minor to you but for teens it's way way bigger. I hope you grasp all these points and form a plan. YOU CAN FIX THIS ... believe in yourself first then radiate this confidence in her. Join some cooking classes in which you both mother daughter can participate together and she will get opportunity to meet other mom daughter duo or dance classes etc. etc. There are plenty of ways to turn this around keep doing until you succeed be determined. Teaching her Hindi is must as she'll be able to integrate more with help of tv, songs, bollywood etc. etc. try talking with her around her in Hindi ease her in without even knowing, i could think of million way to help her , you can too. So get your tough Hat on now. Best wishes 👍🏻

@SJ_new thank you for all the valuable advice. A lot of wisdom from you. I wonder are you a parent? Do you have a daughter

How do you suggest it should be done… where should the government start?

Thank you. We are trying to do our best to ensure the children have the best start in their life

Yes that’s what they don’t like the pressure of constant workflow. And the exam preps. But it’s also good to have a discipline. How old are you now and what do you do

@@AgnesMann now I work as an Executive Engineer at Oil And Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) and thank you for asking 😊

That sounds like a good job. Do you feel that being educated in the system you did, helped wing your career?

@@AgnesMann i don't know may be it did secure my life in way...my father used to say if you plant a tree today when it grows up tomorrow you can enjoy the fruits

@@AgnesMann It's true Agnes! kids are grilled right from when they start going to school.. I don't like that..but if you look at the other side of the coin you will see that these kids have far more knowledge and are more intelligent at a very young age! the cbse and icse course is also very tough when compared to the boards of other european,american or british schools!my daughter is just 6 and knows at the table of 2!

Not sure if I agree

Thank you so much for tuning in and I’m glad you have enjoyed the video. Please check some other videos on my channel

@@AgnesMann Sure dear

🙏🏻 what was your experience at school

@@AgnesMann here in Chandigarh 5 day school 🏫

@atozsolutions-iq8st In other schools also 5 days but shorter breaks between terms

@@AgnesMannMy kids pass out from CBSC broad & know full scholarship studying in Kings College London

Thank you. I’m glad you enjoyed it. How was your experience with school and education

@@AgnesManniam a college assistant professor in ACCOUNTANCY and Taxation subject my Qualifications are Master in Commerce and Indian CMA

@jmvcommerceclasses1443 that’s a great job! do you think education system is good in india

Not sure if I can access the correct information. I’ll think about it

Education system is germany is really good indeed

Yes I think the system is pretty similar

Yes providing they do get educated (as not everyone can afford that ) and that they last through the school (not everyone can take that much pressure).

Yes I must agree. And I hope things will improve as the society changes its mindset and outlook on how these impact our children

thanks

Thanks. What’s your view on education system here vs Uk

@@AgnesMann I'm Undergraduate Student preparing for IIT JEE entrance exam(an Engineering entrance exam) which 3rd most Toughest Exam in the world. I feel the pressure is too much. But Quality of Education in IIT college is top notch. Most of successful Indian Startups & Top US companies CEO are IITian. The environment for research and innovation is also very good. In 70 to 80% Indian Education is good but in Some States of Indian Education is not good. And the Indian education system is improving very fast. After a few years, the Indian education system will be very good. And if we talk about UK, the education system there is very good. The population there is also very less and the education system is being handled well. If seen from a holistic perspective, the UK education system is better than the Indian education system at present. But the Indian education system is improving very fast. And we will lead the Future. Best of luck, you are doing a great job.🙏🙏

In a school sport is played only twice or twice a week. But schools run after school clubs where kids can do sport. Mostly kids play on weekends in a local clubs to get better. Those that are really good get picked eventually.

I have covered that in the video. Boys are cbse. Angeli is ici

@@AgnesMannapologies I must have missed that. I was on the London Underground 😊. Will listen again. Thanks.

@@AgnesMannalso is there a reason why you chose those boards? I am a little unfamiliar with the system there and I am replying on friends, relatives and research I am conducting from London. From my knowledge, there are a lot of international boards available.

Hope is there. Private education is not bad at all. Pressure is there but standards are good

I didn’t know much just one year ago so I’m still learning as I go along but always happy to share what I have already learned

Yes they do go to exclusive and expensive school indeed

Yes we are keeping an eye on the situation

Thank you I think I covered what I wanted to cover. My daughter doesn’t enjoy the pressure of exams , food at school , the heat. That’s about it.

Which video should I create next

@@AgnesMann yeah I agreed 💯 % the pressure is too much and the food given by the school is a complete mess ...I think you should pack a lunch box from the home itself.

@@AgnesMann neighbour's behaviour comparison like in India and uk or whatever you wanna create just go ahead 😊😊

​@@AgnesMann Like include jass more in the videos 😅

Yes even for us this is a lot of money. Just happen to be that we chose this school assuming most schools cost as much. But I know many private schools like Woodstock cost a lot more than this

Thank you for watching. Have you gotten education from India? What was your experience

The kids are in a very good school here so I do believe they are getting great education, so not sure where you were at school. It is high pressure environment indeed but that's just what it is. I don't disagree with what you say and we will be eventually leaving India because of my daughter's struggles. thank you for your message and I am glad this was a video you enjoyed. I am always opened to suggestions as to what you would like me to film.

@@AgnesMann this is exactly my point. India the pressures are immense around an acedemic where as in UK it is well rounded grooming. Also my older daughter is now 8 she is at Grade 3 of ABRSM in piano. Doing just 30 mins every week. Not sure why you would need to teach for 5 days each week. She is at advance stage of swimming as well as drama. Here there are lots of extra curricular options compared with India. Sports and others are formalised teaching with a systematic approach. Formal assessments to aid your learning. These also add to UCAS points while gaining admission to university. Many children are moving to UK for higher education and then to get jobs. If it was good in India why would they be inclined to do that. For facts in India doctors engineers and mba there are 30% unemployed. A question to think?

Yes we even spoke to the principal ma’am but she asked to try one more semester and she will make sure angeli is more comfortable. If nothing changes we will have arrange the home schooling for her

Yes and also the pressure could be a negative too. Not every child is strong enough to take it well

Yes that’s true. I also noticed that with my husband. Believe or not it is a very similar thing in Poland.

That’s great to hear. Improving the system is always important and we move on with technology and realise the old ways no longer apply. Shame it will still take 3 years for it to come into play

What kind of help

I think this particular issue is not down to government but parents teaching kids how to treat woman. I do see this heading in the right direction although amongst poorer people this is still the case

Yes you are right

​​@@gurbhajan3716Talking As if gender inequality and women right issues exclusive to India??? West may have made more progress but doesn't mean they don't need such system as well.....

@stephanatlas5331 better human rights in UK,

​@@gurbhajan3716May be ,but does that mean disrespectful or discriminatory attitudes against women doesn't exist in uk???

yes, and they don't like india. all of them leave India and pay taxes abroad. I would say it's the worst investment India is making in its youth. good CEO'S are only good for the West.

Yes we are considering this option now. She’s just gone to Poland and then to germany for an exchange program and will return after 3 months. Hopefully after she’s back she will have some time to relax and enjoy and comes back with different outlook

@@AgnesMann I know that Germany has a great education system one of the best

Not in MP. I think it differs state to state

Yes I agree, all we do if for the benefit of the children. We didn’t expect things to go the way they did so that’s why we will be moving back next year. It’s not easy to just wrap up and go and things need to be prepared as well so it will take some time.

Also if I might respectfully add, please don’t put politics on your channel. Your content is way better when you focused on your family. I’m fearing you’ll turn into Karolina Goswami channel which is heavily political.

@@samadrana6816 ok thanks for your advise

Yes. My daughter is in Poland now on vacation as she did not want to travel India. She dislikes here more and more as the time goes on. So much so she don’t want to come back. We have a real dilemma

Home tutors cost in India per month is £60 and in UK is £600.

​@@AgnesMannyes, of course. But the average wage in the UK is many times the average of India. £60 is as out of reach for many Indians, as £600 is for many UK families. Although our tutor here in the UK under £200 a month but that's just once a week.

We talk to her and try to encourage to see things differently but tens have their own minds

Thank you. Yes we know if the fact that many the leaders of the world have Indian education but our kids especially our daughter is not happy here to the point we worry about her wellbeing so will have to move sadly.

I guess it varies from school to school

He is 5 ? And will be going to a boarding school?

@@AgnesMann yes he is 5 year ,and hope he will like and settle down ,I don’t want him to study in uk as you know the society around him is getting worse,smoking ,swearing,not respectful,discipline,and environment are my reason

@@AgnesMann what do you think of my decision?

You kids your decision I’m sure you have the best interest in heart for him. I just don’t like the idea of my kid being away from me for such a long time. Even my 15 year old only for the first time went for 3 months trip and it’s already a lot for me to handle. I have a strong bond with them and I think at the age of 5 that’s a very early age to give them to boarding facility. I’m a mother so might have a different perspective on the matter

She has a British passport hence she will be considered as a home student in the UK

Not true. You better research British passport won’t give her automatic right to UK university fee home student. The rule for away student who didn’t do O/A Levels in the UK are different. Please do your research as I know many British born facing a similar issue but for them it’s not an issue paying higher fees

@@amir_sopinion ok I will look into it

@@AgnesMann sorry my comment is intended for you to have an insight on this issue. I’m sure you want your kids to attend a UK university. The link is from House of Common and is legitimate

@@amir_sopinion no issue. I appreciate your input

What is Sinik school?

Hi, long time no see… welcome back Angeli is in Europe now. She was first spending summer with her grandparents and now she’s in Germany for a students exchange

​@@AgnesMann... yep ... been busy with many things ... how r u liking Indore... any business start up

@praveendaulat well I’ll send you to my recent video kzfaq.info/get/bejne/r9qKpJuiyby4aKM.htmlsi=aJx0rP05r0cCUmiy I’ve explained it all

I am planning to visit mumbai in december. if all goes well then we might consider

You seems you are right actually. Every country has its issues. I juts hope my kids will manage to make the most of it while we are here

We are looking into an option of home schooling

Kids don’t have to go to university at all. These days it’s a financial knowledge that’s important more than school education. School does not teach how to thrive but how to survive and get stuck in a matrix of taxes. We need to relearn what we learned and understand how to live life well and that’s not necessarily from going to university. The choice will be theirs and we will fund their education whichever way they will choose to go but ultimately we tell them it’s the financial knowledge they need to gain and sadly schools don’t teach that

Parents support has not much to do with kids taking the pressure well. It’s actually their own ability that comes from individual’s character. But parents do bring values that should allow children to make choices in life so if there are good parents they kids should not be behaving the way you described. But also 50% is a peer pressure. It’s difficult as teenagers are also going through their own struggles

What’s interesting about these moments. Share your thoughts

Thank you

She cannot adapt as she comes from completely different education system and different environment. We will have to go back to the UK as her wellbeing is very important to us

Quite possibly that can be the case. Private schools are really good in india

@@AgnesMann Only a tiny minority of them. I studied in a peivate school in India and my son studied in a peivate school till year 4 in India. I have no regrets moving to UK as I have seen his friends struggling to be kids with too much parental, Peer and Neighbour pressure to be always first in the class. All of this to do a job, that they never had interest in.

As if we were to go back she will have a lot more to catch up

I can’t see your comment. What one was it

@@AgnesMann It not about school it's about system eventually they would be required to attempt jee/other competitive exams their score will determine how well they do in corporate and if they opt to pursue other field(arts) it full of holes with very little opportunity and corruption like in modeling or others also keep in mind Indian exams don't not teach skills if you fail you don't have anything to showcase. And exams are designed to eliminate competition hence they have very little time to think on each question just cram formula to pass is the easy way out. This is without considering incompetence of institutions such as schools or colleges.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts but how exactly is this relevant to this topic

They don't really care about government school Corruption is high in our country that's why government school is not developed Have you ever visited a government school in India how dirty it The worst education system is in government schools

Hehe yes I guess so.

Different stats run different times. I think it’s down to the weather

Education should be free and sadly most school do charge as they don’t get enough funding from the government. If you choose to put the kids in the private setting that’s ok but sadly there are very few schools in india that provides good schooling for free

@@AgnesMann Agreed. Education should be affordable for everyone. After all, we all want kids to get educated. The unfortunate part in the world today is that education takes backseat when it comes to government funding and they would rather spend on military. Also, I can empathise with your daughter. Indian system is chaotic and if you don't run along with your classmates then you fall behind. This puts immense pressure on the kids.

Ok thank you

Hmmm. At many times I struggle to understand so hence I assumed it’s based on us English

Yes some school have super high fees

Pode

Bro a lot has changed in few years, the education system is improving in northern states rapidly.

Literacy is not equal to proper education.

@@Futurebhartiya I agree, in India, every English speaking person is considered as educated person. But they are actually literate person not educated

That is not the case actually- in England everyone gets basic education until the age of 16- so they can’t be illiterate- but that’s not to say they are considered highly educated - this term is reserved to those that go to uni only

Ok I shall watch them. Thanks for the input

Yes it does need improvement. It puts too much pressure on kids but at the same time- those that do well- get great jobs and become great people

Yes I’m aware of the disadvantaged position that poorer communities are in. It’s sad.

You are on point with this analogy What do I do as a parent to make her understand? Maybe you know too?

@@AgnesMann Let me think and will revert back.

@2011var i would appreciate any advise

Yes. Government pays for it funded by the taxpayer

​​@@AgnesMannso it means gov education is free but private education people have to pay? If its true then, Its similar to Indian education system only difference is gov education is very bad in India & private one depends on how much you can spend according to that you'll get best quality education. Is it still the same case in uk?

UK has free schools for everyone. Only top rich Sharks sends their kids to private education
