**Disappointing Decline in Boston School International**
As a parent whose child has been enrolled at Boston School International since elementary school, I've witnessed firsthand the drastic downturn in the school's quality over the past year. With an alarming turnover rate among staff, including three different English teachers within a single academic year, it's evident that stability and consistency have become major concerns.
The recent hiring practices seem to prioritize filling positions rather than ensuring qualified educators. This compromise in standards has resulted in teachers ill-equipped for their roles, undermining the educational experience for students.
Despite initial optimism about changes within the school, it's become apparent that these changes have not been for the better. The departure of teachers mid-year, citing better opportunities and support elsewhere, reflects a troubling lack of commitment to both students and the institution itself. Furthermore, the decline extends beyond personnel to encompass the quality of school supplies, which has noticeably diminished.
While Boston School International may boast an IB curriculum, the reality is that the quality of education has regrettably diminished. Concerns regarding language proficiency among some staff members, characterized by a heavy Caribbean accent, only compound the issue.
In light of these challenges, I cannot in good faith recommend Boston School International to other parents seeking a reliable and high-quality educational institution for their children. It's evident that there are better options available, and I hope to see Boston School International reclaim its former status as a beacon of excellence in education.

I used to be a student in this school and let’s be honest the school is really bad overall in both academic and teachers the teachers first most of them are very irresponsable with their work and are clearly not up to the IB standards when I was at school there was this class that out of the 30 something students that did the full ib only 2 or 4 were able to pass the education is really bad and I remember some teachers didn’t even put the effort into creating a real assignment other issues come from the students it seems that the school cares more about money than students the staff constantly changes and the atmosphere is pretty toxic and negative kids smoking taking pictures of others and not only students were bullies but also other teachers I find the school to be really bad don’t even go there because there are far better options and to be honest the school is not worth it’s... read full review

We felt that Boston School does not truly focus on the child’s well-being and development. Instead of prioritizing education and individual growth, they seem to categorize students based on their own business interests. This approach does not align with what we expect from a school that genuinely cares about its students
