What are the schools in Hanoi like?
When we asked about the schools in Hanoi, they said...
"I would have a long talk to someone from the PTA and ofcourse the headmaster or the admin people. Everyone at this school is very friendly and wil give your answers to all of your questions. But be aware there are long wainting list for some of the classes so do not hesitate to enroll," wrote an expat with kids at HIS Hanoi International School in Hanoi.
"It is small, about 300 kids, but the great thing about it is the close sense of community and the school's open door policy. I would say that 90% of the teachers are excellent and well qualified.

This is common in ALL schools anywhere!!," commented one expat when asked about Hanoi International School in Hanoi.
