Hi,

What are your views on Key Stage 3 (Grade 7-9)

The teaching quality, peer group & other aspects?

In this case, I believe is a good approach. Shows that the management is listening to complains and really doing something about it.

My kids are attending school in DBS and last year my elder daughter was in Reception, in her class there were around 27-28 children, and when we complained they said we compensated this increase by adding one more assitant to the class. So one Teacher and 2 assistants, but it was clear that one more assistant can not replace the main teacher's full attention!

This year the average number is getting less 20-23, but this time compensated by smaller classes..

DBS seems to be a good school. Reviews that says it has more than 25 students per class is not true as I have checked with many mom's with kids in DBS. They all claimed an average of 22-23 per class.

Parents are updated on a weekly basis via newsletter on what is being taught for the week. It's always good to take a tour to the school & find out for yourself if you are comfortable with the school.
