What the fee buys: compare outcomes, not just price
The cheapest fee is not the best value, and the most expensive is not the best school. For every school on your shortlist, ask four things:
- Published board results — most Lucknow schools do not publish an average. Scholars’ Home does: ISC 2026 average 83.65%, ICSE 2026 average 86.51%.
- Section size — Scholars’ Home caps every section at 35.
- What is included — labs, sports, clubs and transport can be extra.
- One-time charges — admission fee, security deposit, development fund.
