Transition was not easy, extra tuition necessary and in the end my child had to repeat a year after leaving the school.

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

Nothing really, there is no PTO. You can meet nice people at the school gate in the primary school, but the school does not organize anything and the headmaster made it very hard for the last PTO to exist (they resigned two years ago and have not been replaced). Integration, if your children are older, is much more difficult.

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

Talk to as many existing parents as you can, and examine all the other options!
