Schools and admissions
Coimbatore is a major education city.
Its schools teach CBSE, ICSE/ISC, Matriculation and state board, and a handful are international. Moving from one CBSE school to another is simple. The strongest schools are on the western and northern edge (Kanuvai, Vadavalli) and along the eastern IT corridor (Saravanampatti, Kalapatti). The historic Stanes and PSG Public are central, on Avinashi Road. Families who don't speak Tamil usually choose CBSE or ICSE, so the syllabus carries over.
