AMID reports that the BMC’s International Baccalaureate (IB) school in Vile Parle will be affiliated to the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE),  the civic body plans to switch the affiliation of its Matunga-based Cambridge International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) school to a national board.

According to official sources, the school authorities held a meeting with parents on this matter last week, and a large number of them consented to the change in board affiliation. At the moment, MPS LK Waghji Cambridge School has a total of 245 students on its rolls, from senior kindergarten to nursery and from Std I to Std V. Affiliation costs and teacher availability happen to be the key concerns behind the transition.
