What are the schools in Albania like?

Answer this Question

When we asked about the schools in Albania, they said...

"The American School of Tirana (AST) is one of the best international schools in Albania. Located in the capital city of Tirana, AST offers a comprehensive American-style education to students from Pre-Kindergarten to Grade 12. The school is accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools and offers a rigorous curriculum that prepares students for college and university studies. AST also offers a variety of extracurricular activities, including sports, music, and art. The International School of Tirana (IST) is another excellent international school in Albania. IST is a private, non-profit school that offers a comprehensive international curriculum to students from Pre-Kindergarten to Grade 12. The school is accredited by the Council of International Schools and offers a variety of extracurricular activities, including sports, music, and art. The Bilingual School of Tirana (BST) is a bilingual school in Albania that offers a comprehensive bilingual education to students from Pre-Kindergarten to Grade 12. BST is accredited by the Council of International Schools and offers a rigorous curriculum that prepares students for college and university studies. The school also offers a variety of extracurricular activities, including sports, music, and art," commented one expat when asked about in Albania.

"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," explained one expat in Tirana, Albania with kids at Albanian International School.
