Year 2020 changed the way education was looked at from all stakeholder’s perspective. The uncertainty that followed the pandemic 2020 has also largely contributed to loss of economic, educational and recreational activities. The whole scenario has added a little more ambiguity for parents to choose the best course of education for their wards. The basic question arises in the mind of the parents that How one chooses the Best School for their child? Here are few pointers that how the lexicon International School have been coping up and delivering educational standards amidst the crisis.
