“My husband was still in Dubai.
I lost his job because of the financial crisis.

Education is far more affordable here; we spend two children what we spend on education one child in Dubai, “He said.
Lourdes Central Principal in Bejai, Father Mangaluru Robert D’Souza acknowledged the burst in the number of NRI which enrolled their children in schools in Dakshina Kannada.
“The acceptance of children from parents NRI has continued to increase over the past few years, but have witnessed recklessly after a pandemic, mostly due to losing work,” he said.
Although it is common for NRI students to come to India to pursue education after class X, or scholars, trends change.
“We registered students for fifth grade now.
Most parents prefer to recognize their children to CBSE school or ICSE.
This year alone, we have recognized 40 NRI students,” said Sister Melissa, Principal of Mount Carmel Central School.
He acknowledged schools that were forced to refuse to enter students because most of the chairs had been fulfilled.
“CBSE allows for only 40 students per class per class.
Children who have studied the British syllabus or level ‘O’, find it difficult to overcome changes in the curriculum.
Learn Kannada, which is a mandatory subject, is also a challenge.
We help them excit the crisis By offering special classes.
When we recognize children who have studied in the British curriculum, we register their parents’ support in the early years, “said Sister Melissa.
Representatives from the management of the Presidency School in Neermarga, Mangaluru said that around 10 NRI students had been registered with the institution for the academic year 2021-22.
