The new age schooling

Ten-twenty years from now, school meant a 4-5 hours learning of various subjects. Things have changed now-a-days. Schooling is not merely restricted to learning of different subjects. Schooling today involves a total care of the child.

Today, you send your child to a school and see your child come home with knowledge not merely restricted to a few subjects, it’s larger!
