The marketing team that gives the tour is top-notch. But once you actually enroll and are essentially stuck there, you realize that it was all just a bunch of salesmanship. I honestly think the only way this school is able to survice is because most kids' tuition are paid for by large companies as part of an ex-pat package, as opposed to individual parents. When you are paying for something, as opposed to getting something for free, you tend to be a lot more discerning and have higher expectations. The middle school math program was a complete and utter failure last year and the kids barely learned anything. Most kids do not seem particularly motivated to learn and there's a lot of goofing around and disrespect for teachers. Many of the kids are also over-entitled and nasty and the school does nothing about it.
