I have sent two of my children to this school for over a year. In conclusion, I absolutely do not recommend this school. If you are looking for an international school, I strongly recommend looking at other schools.
According to my experience, the problems at this school are as follows.
First, while my child was preparing for class at school, she was slapped by another student, and even more shocking, the assailant had another friend slap my child as well. Despite this outrageous act, the school did not notify my family of any investigation results or punishment. And the offender was only punished with two days of community service. The School didn't even reply to my emails. I met the school staff in person and talked to her, but I only got a really absurd answer. I felt hopeless about the administration of this school.
Second, schools arbitrarily assign children to schools. My child was supposed to be in the 5th grade when she came in, but for some strange reason, the school assigned her to the 4th grade. I requested the school to have her taking test and being assigned a school based on her abilities, but even this was ignored by the school. The school assigned my child to a grade one year lower just because it is easier for her to adapt to secondary school if she attends primary school for at least a year. And the school said this was the rule, but when my child actually went to the school, some children were assigned a year higher, and some children were assigned a year lower. The school administration is really the worst. There are no standards from the school, and it is arbitrary depending on the situation.
Third, there are cases where the qualifications of teachers are questionable. Some grades have only one class, and there are more than 20 students in this grade. The reason is that the teacher who was supposed to be in charge of the other class had such poor evaluations that not all parents wanted to assign the child to that teacher. So, there were cases where students who should have been in two classes took classes in one class.
There are many other things to say, but I think this is enough to give you an idea of what kind of school this is.
