What has this school done to help your child transition from the curriculum in your home country into the curriculum in your new country? Are there programs to prepare your child for repatriation?

The information taught is 6 years out dated.

How would you describe the social activities available for parents through this school? Are there parent-teacher organizations?

There are not many activities available for students or parents

What advice would you give to someone considering enrolling their child in this school?

Give it a lot of thought. The material is old and teaching Business English, English abroad, is just not good. Many teachers must make up as they go to educate them. For students it is fun but learn little in the way or western English. Pay for the teachers is not always on time and to many lies. Many good teachers have left because of the HR department attitude toward them once they sign a contract. My advice would be to find a school that teaches and does not promise things they cannot give. It cost a lot of money to attend NDI but not worth the price.
