How would you describe the facilities at this school? What extra-curricular activities are available?
Its a private Lao school that teaches in English in the morning. 95 % of students are Lao. It calls itself International but in reality its not. The level of English among the students is low. Basically its an ESL school for rich Laos children. Foreign teachers are not qualified, paid poorly and treated badly by the owner. It's not accredited. There is no school board or parent associations. It's a money making business where education is low in priority. Do not send your kids there if you are an expat!
