Parkwood School International (PSI) was a co-educational residential school, about 65 km away from Hyderabad, Telangana, India. Parkwood provided education for children from grade 3 to 12. The school once offered CBSE, University of Cambridge IGCSE and A-Levels.
Location[edit]
The school was located on a 32-acre (130,000 m2) campus about 60 km (37 mi) west of Hyderabad on the Vikarabad Road (near Manneguda).
Curriculum[edit]
Parkwood was previously affiliated with the Central Board of Secondary Education, prior to the license being suspended by that board. The school offered courses from the national CBSE and the international IGCSE and A-Levels.
Controversy[edit]
The school was in the news when its director was arrested by police and found guilty of raping a student. In Nov/Dec 2011, charge sheets were filed after a delay of 18 months.[1]
The school has been stripped of its recognition by CBSE because of the gross violations of the norms.[2]
