The children have been studying at Prestige School for 3 years. We are very satisfied! Firstly, they have excellent living conditions: up to 20 people in a class, the classes themselves are well equipped, good 4 meals a day.
Secondly, they do almost all their homework at school. You can approach any teacher after the main lessons and ask them to explain what they did not understand. Children are no longer afraid of teachers, as it happens in ordinary schools. This led to a return of interest in their studies! Sometimes they come home and, with burning eyes, tell us what interesting things they passed through today. As a result, the grades also got better.
They have an interesting and varied leisure time, many good friends in the classroom, and a wonderful classroom.
Actually, you know, we originally emigrated to Kazakhstan, but to be honest, now it is the school that keeps us in this country the most.
I have been studying at a very good school for 5 years now, there is good heating, everything is very good and cozy, a friendly team of teachers are kind and adapt to students with teachers you can find a good language. Thank you very much to this school that it is, I love everyone who is there!
We arrived from Russia in March 2024 and came to study at the Prestige school. The director, Irina Vsevolodovna Kuzmina, was happy to enroll children in grades 4 and 1 and enthusiastically told what a great school she had, what amazing quality food, excellent teaching staff.
In fact, unfortunately, everything turned out to be not as rosy as in the election campaign. The eldest child joined the already formed team at the end of the fourth grade and immediately faced the problem of bullying in the classroom. In a class consisting of 17 boys and 4 girls, the child was openly bullied, they did not communicate with him significantly. We finished our studies before the end of the quarter and went on summer holidays, hoping that with the beginning of the school year, the situation will return to normal in high school. But as the school year began, the bullying situation only got worse. As a result, the child's desperate attempts to somehow attract the attention of classmates, a sharp decrease in motivation to go to school, deterioration in academic performance and demonstrative complaints from teachers. The problem was escalated to the headmistress more than once, but recognizing the problem would significantly harm her business, so no steps were taken to resolve it on the part of the administration and teaching staff during the six months of study at this under-school. On the contrary, Kuzmina I.V. openly demonstrated dislike for the child and carefully summed up the basis for the fact that the problem is in the child, and not in her clumsily constructed pedagogical process, where teachers are able to work exclusively with comfortable children. Throughout the first quarter of the 24-25 academic year, Kuzmina looked for problems, inflated them to an incredible scale, constantly pulled my spouse and me to visit her, as if we were a girl and a boy, and were obliged to fulfill her wishes on demand. She invited the child into the office, allowed herself to communicate in raised tones, asking questions, did not listen to the answers to them and did not allow her to finish her sentences, cut off in mid-sentence, interrupted and gagged, both the child and tried to do the same with the parents. The impression is quite unambiguous - an overbearing woman with a little boss syndrome, who is used to asserting herself at the expense of children who are unable to give her an adequate rebuff for objective reasons. If your child is a person with his own views and character, then he will not live in this school, because he is very likely to be bullied, both by other children and by teachers. A similar problem has already been written about in other reviews, and, unfortunately, this is the truth. The level of teachers is extremely low. Good teachers run away from this school and Kuzmina attracts "downed pilots" of very retirement age to teach children, who have long since had a well-deserved rest, but they are thrown into a class with 17 boys, where they start drinking corvalol and there is no question of any high-quality education at all. The school psychologist is very busy and does not have the opportunity to get involved in a situation in which finding a solution is her immediate responsibility. And so this bedlam continues, which the teachers and the headmistress are trying to suppress with shouts and threats. Every new day at Prestige school is an emotional swing, depending solely on what the retrograde Mercury whispered to the mistress of the school today.
As a result, in two quarters the child's level of knowledge has slipped from a confident 4-5 points to threes. Teachers are not able to convey elementary topics to children, because they are not interested in the child learning something. They are driven solely by the desire to serve their working hours as soon as possible and receive their salary. Grades are a separate story. In a number of subjects, teachers intentionally underestimate the results of unwanted children in order to create a springboard for termination of the contract. For example, if a child has not completed his homework for a good reason and promptly warned the teacher about it, he will receive an answer that this is not the teacher's problem and it should be. And this dialogue will end with the malicious posting of 1 point in an electronic magazine. And a good grade, given for homework done, will remain exclusively on the margins of the notebook. When you try to figure out the situation and ask the class teacher why double standards are being practiced for grading in an electronic journal, do not expect a reasonable answer. The situation will simply be hushed up. We have repeatedly encountered a situation where a child received a remark in an electronic journal or a bad grade on a future date. It seemed that all the comments were scheduled for the week ahead, and it did not matter that the date had not yet arrived. When they paid attention to this, they received answers that it was an accident. An accident that naturally repeated itself.
At the same time, not only the eldest child was a priori to blame for everything, but also the youngest, apparently solely because he shares the same surname with the eldest.
We have repeatedly had the opportunity to make sure that if you are uncomfortable, protect your child and do not fawn over the headmistress, you are not suitable for Prestige school. You have already paid the entrance fee, so they will be incredibly persistent in creating conditions for you to leave this school.
The Prestige school building is very tired and in need of repair. The school grounds are very small and, in fact, children of all classes crowd on a small patch and a small football field in front of the building. The entrance to the school is disgusting, there are almost no parking spaces.
A separate issue is transportation. The safety of children in vehicles in motion is ostentatious. In fact, children are not required to fasten their seat belts. The child can freely stand up in the cabin and risks injury. At the same time, if he gets injured, he will be to blame, because you signed the rules, which say that you can not get up, but the child got up. The fact that it is the driver's responsibility to ensure that he safely transports small passengers and all children must be fastened, the delivery misses. We have made comments on this more than once, but little has changed. Also, be prepared for the fact that if your child quarrels with someone, and the opponent's parents do not like it, they will be able to safely get on the school bus and put pressure on your child, without your knowledge and presence, conduct moralizing dialogues with him and adults responsible for the safe transportation of your child, not that they do not They will prevent such an egregious situation, and they will also open the door to the school bus themselves. Any questions you ask after learning about a similar situation will be ignored.
The natural result of such a low-grade education and a dubious level of transportation of children was that after the first quarter of the 24-25 academic year, we ran away from Prestige school like hell, canceling the contract of education for both children.
Within a month, they were forced to involve a tutor, who corrected all those gaps and outright jambs in the children's knowledge that remained after studying at the prestigious Prestige. And, having significantly improved the level of knowledge, the children coped well with the entrance tests to another school, the pedagogical process of which we are now very satisfied with. Now the children are happy to go to a new school, show excellent results and have found new friends who support them, and do not bully the crowd, as in Prestige.
I recall with horror the days spent in Prestige, and I assume that all the laudatory odes from three similar sentences that are sung about the splendor of this school have one author.
In general, analyze, draw conclusions and decide whether you should deal with Prestige! I definitely do not recommend spending my time, nerves and money on teaching your children at this school. I would like the supervisory authorities in the field of education to take a closer look at the unhealthy situation at Prestige School.
The school is wonderful. My children studied there with pleasure. Many thanks to the principal and all the teachers. Thank you very much for your hard work and patience. Especially Rosa Mukhamedovna🌹🌹🌹
Excellent conditions for the child's learning and development! Wonderful teachers and the atmosphere at school! The school is being updated. There is a guard and a delivery service for children.
My favorite school. We changed 3 schools to Prestige. Only here both we and the child are finally comfortable. Teachers, program, meals, security, additional classes, transportation, everything is organized at the proper level. The director is well done.
Great school. The best in the city. Excellent and very good teachers work here. I would like to express my gratitude to all the teachers of this wonderful school. I had two children here.
A good private school. Conveniently located, fenced territory, delicious food in the dining room and, most importantly, excellent teachers.
Classes by the number of students, of course, could be made a little smaller, but already as it is.
I have no idea what kind of school it is, I only played basketball there. That's why I'll write about the playground: Good rings, a normal locker room, and balls are a miracle in general. Only here it's either dusty or something else, it's very slippery even in basketball sneakers.

Some teachers don't explain, and the portions in the cafeteria are very small. It's also like there are no cleaners, the bucket is always in the urine. Of the advantages, the only thing is that coolers are always nearby, and with this there is 1 minus. It lies in the fact that there are almost never glasses near physical education
I won't say great, but the staff of teachers are perfectly matched ...
The director is trying ...
But the room itself needs repair ...
The education level program is quite entertaining, but complicated, food and transportation are thoughtful, almost perfect
A very good school, the level of education is higher than the Russian one. English with native speakers. Three meals a day. The school bus. Additional classes with teachers and clubs
Excellent school, I have been studying here for more than 4 years. The teachers are kind, there are dispensers with cups and water on every corner. The school is divided into 4 blocks, it is not very convenient to go back and forth. As it is, everything is fine!
As a school, it's good. But the location is not very good.
Everyone is climbing, there is no parking, if you do not have parking, then oblige everyone to travel by official transport.
And so not local residents, not just road users, I can't walk at an hour when the students go out.
The best school. There are 3 buildings. 1 is the biggest where we study. 2 different mugs. They are specially made for us and very convenient. And 3 with a large gym and an assembly hall.
A very good school. Everyone studies in the morning, feeds, drives. There are few children in the classes, there is an opportunity to devote time to each child during the lesson, the teachers are excellent. I really like this school, and most importantly, my son likes it. There are many sections and circles. Not for free, of course, but everything is through the bank and you don't have to rent curtains every year.
The attitude is like in an ordinary Soviet school (go through - do not delay). It does not feel like in a private school that you are cherished and treated as a person. Dostar, Lika, Bilimkhana, Archimedes are another matter
