after reading this long thread, and many others here, i regret having to keep my kids in SABIS, CISD. all what you mentionned above about safety, teachers qualifications, level of education, discipline and system is fine in there. but the only down point is thatparent is not permitted to directly discuss the child with the class teacher. and the have like 3 exams a term, and two tests a week. students have to revise at home all what they studied at school on a daily basis, or failure is ahead. no homework to be done at home though.
if student is wise and mature enough to suck it all at school, he comes home knowing more than his parents, and having all the time for activities.
my kids study day and night and they cannot cover it all. they are bored in class, so i have to repeat everything at home. exhausting for me and them.
waiting lists in every school in doha have my kids names somewhere!!!!
