My Son is currently year 7-aged 12, he has been at a really good private UK school for two years and was doing very well. We recently moved abroad due to my husbands job and he is now in a Private International IB school. Since starting there we have been shocked by the standard compared to the UK. It seems that Secondary MYP seems very unorganised, my son often tells me kids are not working and teachers are not doing anything about this. They all work on Laptops and some kids are playing games in lessons, he says a lot of the time he feels like he isn’t learning as much there. The school hasn’t many sports facilities and we are very disappointed with the sports programme, especially as it hasn’t even got fully qualified coaches. The only positive thing is that our son is very happy!
We are paying out a large sum for this and I’m now going out of my mind with worry.
Does anyone have experience of International IB schools?
