What are the schools in Moscow like?
When we asked about the schools in Moscow, they said...
"When deciding where to live in Moscow, consider the travel times to the school. It is far from the center (North-West) and travel might be frustrating due to congestion. The school runs IB program. See the web site www.aas.ru," commented one expat when asked about Anglo-American School in Moscow.
"Think hard about attending here. This school thinks it is much better than it is. The curriculum, particularly math, is very weak. Most parents engage tutors for the children to keep up with the home curriculum. The teachers' children receive preference in sports, drama clubs etc. The teachers receive preference for use of school facilities such as the workout room. It is not nearly good enough for the high tuition paid and the headmaster is ineffective. The administration does not welcome constructive criticism. The best advice? Attend ISM if given the choice," explained one expat in Moscow, Russia with kids at Anglo American School.
