Top 5 Questions Parents Ask When Choosing a School – Answered!

Choosing the right school for your child is one of the most important decisions you’ll ever make as a parent. It’s about more than academics—it’s about finding a nurturing environment that aligns with your values, supports your child’s unique needs, and prepares them for a successful future.

 

 

At Wisdom International School, Frazer Town, we regularly meet parents who come to us with thoughtful questions about their child’s education. In this blog, we’ve compiled the top 5 questions parents frequently ask—along with how we proudly address each one..

1. Is the School Academically Strong?

This is one of the first and most essential questions parents ask—and rightly so. At Wisdom International School, we follow the internationally recognized Cambridge Curriculum, known for its strong academic foundation, critical thinking approach, and global relevance.

Our academic programme focuses on:

  • Conceptual understanding (not rote learning)

  • Inquiry-based and active learning methods

  • Regular assessments to track progress

  • Strong English, Math, and Science foundations

  • Integration of digital literacy and communication skills

We maintain small class sizes to ensure each child gets personalized attention, and our experienced teachers are trained to nurture academic excellence while supporting different learning styles.


2. How Does the School Support Islamic Values and Identity?

For many parents, education is not just about what a child learns, but how they grow in character and faith. At Wisdom International School, our approach combines academic excellence with a strong Islamic foundation.

We offer:

  • Daily Salah (prayer) in congregation

  • Islamic Studies integrated into the timetable

  • Qur’an recitation and memorization (Hifz) programmes

  • A focus on Akhlaq (good character), honesty, and respect

  • A school culture rooted in compassion, empathy, and discipline

Our aim is to raise students who are knowledgeable, confident, and guided by faith—individuals who succeed both in Dunya (this world) and Akhirah (the hereafter).


3. Are the Class Sizes Manageable for Individual Attention?

Parents are increasingly aware that overcrowded classrooms often lead to a lack of individual care and diluted teaching. That’s why we proudly maintain small class sizes at Wisdom International.

With fewer students per class:

  • Teachers can give personalized guidance

  • Learning is more interactive and student-centered

  • Teachers can spot challenges early and offer support

  • Students feel more comfortable asking questions and participating

This setup ensures that no child is left behind and that every student feels seen, heard, and valued.


4. What Extracurricular and Personality Development Opportunities Are Available?

While academics are vital, a well-rounded education also includes opportunities for creativity, physical fitness, leadership, and teamwork. Parents want to know if their child will develop confidence and soft skills beyond the classroom.

At Wisdom International School, we offer a wide range of co-curricular and enrichment activities, including:

  • Sports and physical education

  • Art and creative expression

  • Public speaking and debates

  • Environmental and community service projects

  • Annual events, competitions, and talent showcases

These programmes are designed to build confidence, communication skills, and leadership—preparing students to thrive in the real world.


5. How Safe and Supportive Is the School Environment?

One of the biggest concerns for parents is whether their child will be safe, emotionally supported, and free from bullying or negative influences. At Wisdom International, we place student well-being at the heart of our school culture.

We ensure:

  • A secure, well-monitored campus

  • Experienced and caring teachers who act as mentors

  • Anti-bullying policies and awareness programmes

  • Islamic character-building sessions

  • A nurturing, respectful peer environment

We also maintain open communication with parents, so they are always in the loop about their child’s progress and well-being.
