I was in about the same dilemma when I was looking for a pre-school for my 2 yr old. Talked to some teachers and education experts, the conclusion was, that up till class 6 a child will learn on its own the basic concepts, one can get a child admitted in any school and with proper parents attention he/she will shine. After class 6 however the child will need proper professional standard schooling and teachers. So I'd say select the school that is more convent for you right now, budget wise as well as how good it is in terms of cleanliness, teachers etc, but don't keep your standards much high, once your child passes 6th grade, then look for a school that has the best teachers, you may then alo have a budget to afford the best of the best then.
