Comparison of Noida Expressway schools
Schools are mushrooming on Noida Expressway. Since Expressway provides an easy connectivity to southern part of Delhi, it is finding favor of parents from the capital as well. Infact, as of now, almost 40% students in these schools have origins from Delhi. With an expected population of another 1 to 1.5 lakhs to move to the region by next 3-4 years, the competition for the best is going to be even more intense.
Almost all schools on Noida Expressway are categorized as International, World or Global schools thereby implying a heavy on pocket fee structure. Most of these schools on Expressway are reportedly following international methodology for teaching and overall development of children.
While most of the schools are in growing phase (both infrastructure and experience wise), we tried to come up with a general perception of the schools based on parent’s reviews, faculty, results and existing infrastructure.
The references (on the basis of which the below feedback has been arrived to) are shared at the bottom of the article.

How is Prometheus school expected to be? Currently infrastructure is being developed but sports infrastructure looks well planned. Confused. Anybody got their child admitted?
Hi…..I am really very confused between gyanshree & lotus valley….have to take decision in two days…..there are mixed reviews….plz help
I was in a similar situation last year but I chose lotus valley finally. overall this is what I felt: if you don’t want child to appear from exams till class 5, if you don’t have time to put effort with your kid at home, then go for gyanshree. otherwise, staff of lvis is much more mature. especially if you have a long term goal, lvis is better.
Thank u so much…..wot about lotus academics…..got mixed reviews regarding same
Can anyone please recommend some schools in noida providing meal facilities.
Shiv nadar, genesis and jbm are known to offer meals during the child’s stay at school.
After 5 years, how are shiv Nadar and Shriram millennium stacking up against each other?
I am keen on knowing how is Genesis. is it actually worth the fees demanded?
Not value for money. Good e
Yes not value for money. Lot of activities but academics has degraded.
How is Shanti international school?
Better schools around unless fees is an issue.
