Global Indian International School (GIIS), Pune, is a Maharastra-based international school established in 2011.

History

In 2011, the school was founded in Chinchwad. Subsequently, it relocated to two separate campuses, namely Hadapsar in central Pune and Balewadi.[1] The previous campus is currently recognized as Elpro International School. During 2019, GIIS Pune commenced the implementation of SMART Campus facilities across its two campuses.[2][3]

Controversies

In 2018, the parents were compelled by the school management to purchase the Engineering for Kids (EFK) program, priced at ₹2,000, or else they would be denied textbooks altogether. As a result, parents staged a protest, and the mayor of Pimpri-Chinchwad had to intervene in the matter.[4]

Earlier in the same year, the school faced another instance of protest when it made arbitrary decisions concerning fee payments. Parents were asked to pay an extra amount of ₹200 per day, including Sundays and holidays. Allegedly, the enrollment fee had been raised from 25 percent to 50 percent within a two-year period, as claimed by the parents.[5]

In August 2019, as a result of a shift in management, the school underwent a name change from GIIS Pune to Elpro International School. This decision sparked demonstrations by a group of 100 parents at the school gates, seeking clarification regarding the unexpected removal of the school's brand identity.[6][7] During that period, the Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipal Corporation administration sought clarification by issuing an official notice to the GIIS management, and they also requested documentation regarding the change of name.[8]
