What are the schools in Poland like?
When we asked about the schools in Poland, they said...
"The International School of Krakow (ISK) is one of the best international schools in Poland. Located in the city of Krakow, ISK offers a comprehensive education for students from pre-kindergarten to grade 12. The school follows the International Baccalaureate (IB) curriculum, which is designed to develop students’ critical thinking and problem-solving skills. ISK also offers a wide range of extracurricular activities, including sports, music, and art. The British School of Warsaw is another excellent international school in Poland. The school follows the National Curriculum of England and Wales, and offers a range of extracurricular activities, including sports, music, and art. The school also offers a range of language courses, including English, French, and Spanish. The International American School of Warsaw is a bilingual school in Poland that offers an American-style education. The school follows the American curriculum, and offers a range of extracurricular activities, including sports, music, and art. The school also offers a range of language courses, including English, French, and Spanish. The International School of Gdansk is a bilingual school in Poland that offers an American-style education. The school follows the American curriculum, and offers a range of extracurricular activities, including sports, music, and art. The school also offers a range of language courses, including English, French, and Spanish," remarked one expat living in with children attending .
"The International European School was a great school till 2009, an excellent value for money. From that date, the management of the school has been a true disaster. Most of the international teachers and the best Polish teachers have been fired or invited to resign and they have not been replaced with equally qualified teachers. The academic level has gone down every year, mainly in Primary and Middle Years, while the fees have gone up. The most extraordinary decisions are taken by the Board of Directors without any consultation to parents or pupils, so the environment is often tense. Nevertheless, it is the cheapest international school in English (apart from the Canadian School) in Warsaw, and the fees include transportation and lunch. Only advisable if price is the main factor for taking a decision," said one expat in Warsaw with children at International European School.
