What are the schools in Albania like?

"This school has not been able to retain even one foreign teacher for even one full school year. I took my son out, and know that at least 3 other students left the school during the school year due to poor management. The current director has no experience as a director and has begun military type rules which he picks and chooses when and who to apply discipline to. The administration unfortunately seems to be corrupt, through my witnessing an exchange that was not legal. Please be aware before enrolling your child here," remarked one parent with kids at Albanian International School in Tirana.

"It's a good school but they do hold the students and parents accountable. They use an online grade/homework (EngradePro) system to monitor grades and also use an additional online science program so internet access is a must. Like I said before the MAP program is nice to show your students progress. This appears to be the only school in the city that just doesn't change grades to make parents happy so don't enroll if you expect special favors. The academic director is former US military so everyone is treated the same and the students all have the same right to learn. Your child is special, but so is everyone elses :)," explained one expat living in Tirana, Albania.
