The school is new with a new IB status. Therefore, some policies are evolving. My children went to school in a great neighbourhood of the UK and therefore we chose a school which would provide similar teaching standard. The curriculum is good and advanced than American schools. My children love every week the swimming lessons and the music classes. At the reception stage, I still believe that there is scope for the teachers to be more experienced in dealing with children who are either advanced/gifted or have special needs such as food allergies etc. In higher classes, parents say, the teachers are delivering to their expectations. Our experience is only with the reception stage. Before enrolling, parents with children who have food allergies should talk to the Principal and other parents in detail to find out the issues that they might face in the school.

My daughter has been at the British School since Kindergarten (Year 1). She loves going to school and has learned far more than her friends at other public and private schools in the city. She has had wonderful teachers and feels a part of the community. The IB PYP program is extraordinary.

We transferred our son from a public school and the difference is like chalk and cheese. We cannot say enough good things about the school - the academic standard is very high and our son really enjoys going to school each day.

We're very pleased with all aspects of the school particularly the dedicated teachers, weekly in-school swimming, 2x weekly French Class and great mix of students. We've also been impressed by the healthy lunch menu.
