I have heard they are a bit expensive and their transport cost is around Rs.4000 per term. Regarding the education, PSBB millenium is not a part of PSBB schools (in kknagar, t-nagar etc). This school has international standards (like classrooms, student-teacher ration etc). They follow CBSE standard. I am not sure about their additional expenses. They will start giving the application forms in december/jan. Check with them. All the best.

Hi Ranjoo, One of my friend's kid study here. The kid is in UKG. She said the term fees is around Rs.10000 and per year it comes to Rs.50000. The school is good in extra curriculars, academics etc. The classes, teachers, school facilities are all good. She was saying the school's is on higher end when it comes to fees. Though they don't have any books, home work for lkg and ukg, they teach most stuff using laptops. Using laptops for ukg kids - i am hearing it for the first time!

If you are looking for PSBB millenium, they are giving applications from 10th nov to 12th nov.

PSBB millenium claims they are shifting pre-kg to 3rd std to GST road campus ONLY for academic year 2009-2010.. From 2011, entire school ( all stds) will be functioning ONLY from porur.. But it was not communicated clearly in web site and not even during the interaction session we had for our son Pre-KG admission.. Now our son has to travel around 15 kms daily to school from 2011 when he will be just 5 yrs old.. Or i hv to go for next round of school search.. Parents please be aware of this..

hi, PSBB is part of PSBB group and works under the guidance of Mrs. YGP. you can view their website at http://www.psbbmillenniumschool.org/ A couple of my friend's children are studying there and everyone is happy about the way they teach children. they use playway method and therefore teach children conceptually. it is not mugging up. i've also admitted my kid for Pre.KG for the academic year 2009-10. they are also starting another branch in DLF Garden City, Perumbakkam.

Hi anu. Have they already started the construction in DLF Garden City, Perumbakkam or yet to start.

The Laptop is only from III standard. It has very small screen and keyboard, not that comfy. Added the kids has to carry the laptop every day home to charge it.

hi, i personally feel the school is much expensive and not for middle class or upper middle class. Also my child is in that school and currently, i have changed the school for his LKG.I am lucky in one way that i got another good school.but as such I am changing b'cos the teacher was so harsh on my child, showd so much partiality etc. I made complaints to co-ordinator also..but all just waste..no one bothered to take real actions. Rather it was shown more and more on my ward. They push only the kids who are attractive to them.They dont show uniformity to bring up even the kids who are little backward & silent.  with so much money invested, I dont see anything much special...

The school is a bit expensive. They are just 5 years old and still in the process of setting up their infrastructure. The transport facility is good. Once the construction at the Porur campus is done, the children will be able to enjoy the facilities and the environment. The surrounding area will also develop fast I am sure. Same for the roads too. I do not know how one can say, "better education here and not there..." Education is instilling the interest, attitude to learn in young minds. And providing a conducive environment. We can see negative instances in the best of schools. And it is always sad when such a thing happens. The PSBB name is much valued and respected. That is why we put our children in the school inspite of its fees, location,... I am confident that the school will establish itself soon and live up to its name.

hi,i live in poonamallee.i want to know whether porur psbb provides transport facility to poonamallee.how is this school's education. is it worth putting our children into this school.everyone has stated the fess is too high. does this really not provide quality educationto the staudents. on what basis the admission is given to students?

My son of age 5 's urine is always surrounded by ants. Is he diabetic? Bcoz my father and grandparents are diabetic. I'm not. Please help me.

If your son is otherwise fine, Urine surrounded by ants is no indication that someone is diabetic , this is quite a common feature, but because diabetes runs in families so whenever you visit your paediatrician next do discuss your family history with him so that he/she  can keep a watch.

Greetings Doctor,

Hi Natalia,

No 2 kids are same so u cannot compare him with your daughter, From what you have written, doesn’t looks like there is a problem, some kids start speaking late, so if his understanding of things and hearing is all right,don’t worry, just continue talking to him, reading to him and otherwise stimulating him and just relax and enjoy your babies!
