Hello there,

Both Kendriya Vidyalaya (KV) and Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya (JNV) are excellent government-run schools , but they serve different purposes:

• KV : Best for children of government employees with frequent transfers. It offers a stable CBSE curriculum and good academics.
  
  
• JNV : A residential school with free education, better discipline, and a competitive environment. Ideal for rural students with strong academic potential.

If you prefer day schooling, go for KV. If you're okay with boarding and want a highly competitive setup, JNV is better.
