I have 2 kids living in Switzerland and attending a private international school (which is expensive). For the middle primary to 6th form to gymnasium/college the school is teaching the Cambridge IGCSE curriculum which is great but the school facilities are very very substandard. No proper science lab, no sports fields, just shared use of a local sports hall, very small classrooms, no canteen just a small room with a kettle and microwave for lunchtimes, no cups medals etc showing inter school championships cos they 'dont do that in switzerland'. The only other international schools have great facilities but only teach the IB curriculum. My kids are 11 and 9. What should I do/what would you do? Would love to hear any comments please as these are crucial years that they will never get back if MUM gets it wrong. We come from London and work brought us here 3 years ago.
