What are the schools in Copenhagen like?

"Steer clear of this school. The school principal is only interested in your money. The teachers are unprofessional. Once you sign up for a place you cannot withdraw your child from the school without forfeiting TWO YEARS of school fees. Our daughter was bullied by some older boys and the school did nothing. In the end we had to take her out of the school and get trauma counseling for her. The principal forced us to pay for the next school year after she'd left and threarened us with legal action when we questioned this. This horrible experience has colored our perception of Denmark as a country. We will NEVER come back," explained one expat living in Copenhagen, Denmark.

"When you take a first lokk at the school, you would the facilities are not good enough. But everyone, who gives it a chance changes their minds very fast. The way the school integrates learning, good behavior, and caring both between the students but also among the teachers, parents and students makes this a wonderful school," said one parent with children at HIS, Hoersholm International School in Copenhagen.
