This school is driven for greatness and catered to all matters of concerns. Though this school specializes in art, everything about Christ Methodist surpassed other educational institutions by far. As a parent, I was extremely impressed at the work that was sent home. Teachers were very formal and detailed about my son's day at school. They were unrestricted in his social life. All the kids in the school knew him by name. His teacher was very hands on in teaching him. Every 5 to 6 weeks, I met with his teacher for progress reports. They catered to his educational interests; which made me very happy.
