Visit the school with your child when the school is in full swing. My daughter (being in the very difficuly teenage stage)changed overnight. She fit in perfectly in this school with its mixed bunch of pupils from all over the world and where there is a choice in first language classes. For the first time she did not feel the stranger. They all are strangers..

Her academic level soared and she is a well balanced student today..she is starting her baccalaureat level now.
