The management (all Belgians) has been there forever and do not adjust to new methods. The teachers have poor contracts and are not experienced. Most of them are not native speakers. The students’ families are international but more than a half are Belgian. The non-Belgian are mostly embassy staff, so the turnover is huge. Sometimes, more than half of the class leaves from one year to the other. There is a strong French-speaking Belgian influence in the attitude to learning and to customer service.
In sum, good school for EY or lower primary but not worth the price.
