 Posted: Thu Feb 13, 2014 7:51 am Post subject: Brunei International Schools |
 |
|
My husband (UK) has recently been offered a contract with CfBT in Brunei and from what we can see there is a choice of 2 schools for our 9 yr old daughter. The International School Brunei and Jerudong International School. ISB is described as a 'nice , established international school' and JIS as 'modern and well resourced'. We know some CfBT parents have moved their children to JIS whilst others are happy with ISB.
We know JIS is more expensive and further out of BSB. What we would really like to know about is standard and quality of teaching, children's happiness index, exam results and college placement and general parental well being.
It would be great to hear first hand from current parents about which school they prefer for their children and why. |

JIS is definitely better -by miles.
Cfbt haven't changed their education grant for years, you will have to kick in about BN$600 a month to put her there, about $300 for ISB.
Our children are all grown up, but anecdotally the word is that ISB isn't that great.
Sorry there aren't more locals with kids replying.. I will see if I can dig one up. |
