The school has a high turnover of students and the staff seemed well used to dealing with this, much more than at most schools. The school is very friendly and welcoming, my children settled in very quickly.

OK, although like most ex-pat schools it can get a little clicquey and it's the parents who moan most who make themselves heard the loudest (although there aren't many like this)
What advice would you give to someone considering enrolling their child in this school?
Go for it. The staff are excellent and very entusiastic, not many schools are like this.
