My child was at a local German Private School and kind of felt out of place, WIS helped my child to feel at home, part of the community and it had a big positive impact on his academics,

There is a PTA, working very hard to put in place what should be in place, the teachers are very friendly and the students are warm hearted, helpful and intelligent.

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

WIS is the best private school if you are opting for IB, actually it is the only IB school in Namibia. If you are opting for A-Levels St Paul's would be the right choice
