Parent's Review of Future Bilingual School (FBS) in Fahaheel, Kuwait

What is the name of your child's school? (Please report on one school per survey.)

Future Bilingual School (FBS)

In what town or city is this school located?

Fahaheel

How would you describe this school? (i.e. American, British, International, Local, etc.)

Arab school with 'illusion' of American school

What grade levels are represented at this school?

Kindergarten to grade 8

How do most children get to school everyday? (bus, train, walk, etc.)

Cars. Hanging out of the window usually!

How would you describe the facilities at this school? What extra-curricular activities are available?

The facilities are actually quite good. However, this is used as a smokescreen to prevent parents looking into the rest of the school. Teachers with very little experience and inadequate qualifications are the norm here.

What has this school done to help your child transition from the curriculum in your home country into the curriculum in your new country? Are there programs to prepare your child for repatriation?

Nothing is considered too much effort for the administration/management team of this school. This includes writing fictitious reviews. Please take a look at the other review on this website. Perfectly written by someone within the school. This is easy to spot as they have a really good grasp of the english language, grammar, spelling etc. Highly unlikely to come from one of the parents because they are 99% Kuwaiti and non-English speakers!

How would you describe the social activities available for parents through this school? Are there parent-teacher organizations?

There is no parent-teacher organization at this school. That would mean having to answer questions!

What advice would you give to someone considering enrolling their child in this school?

Don't. (Unless your family have lived within the Fahaheel area for at least 20 years and your boys could accurately be described as 'feral'!)
