‘The Great India Education Fair,’ attracts thousands of Thai parents, known to view Indian education, as a great pedestal for ‘higher education’ and ‘jobs’ in the most developed countries. The exhibition also hopes to catch the attention of the Non-Resident Indian diaspora in Thailand.
“Our exhibition is the perfect platform for parents and students in Thailand to connect with Indian educational institutions directly on a face to face basis,” states, Mr. Sanjeev Bolia, Founder & Managing Director of ‘Afairs Exhibition & Media Pvt. Ltd.’ organisers of the TGIEF. He believes that this exhibition is as much a platform of opportunity as it is one for generating awareness about the merits of Indian education.
Observing the rising number of Thai students entering India on student visas to study in international boarding schools and Indian colleges and universities, he states, “It is obvious that Thai parents are very discerning and keen to give their children the best education they can. They send their children to India because they understand that English language proficiency apart, the cost-benefit advantage an Indian education offers them is greater than what a similar education in the United Kingdom, the United States or even in Thailand can give them!”
Geared to help visitors comprise of Parents and Students along with NRI Indians in Thailand to ‘think in terms of global educational options, ‘The Great India Education Fair’ will exhibit some of the high ranking and well-known residential schools in India like Mussoorie International School, Genesis Global School (Delhi NCR), Vidya Sanskar International School (Faridabad), Unison World School (Dehradun), Jain International School (Bangalore), Greenwood High (Bangalore), International School Aamby (Pune), etc. These will offer the Indian ‘ICSE’ and ‘CBSE’ board curriculums, as well as international curriculums like the ‘IB - International Baccalaureate’ and the ‘IGCSE.’ With the promise of providing excellent infrastructural facilities, teaching staff, grooming, outdoor activities and sports, these schools will also offer ‘spot admissions’ and spot counselling facilities’ at the exhibition.
