The only reason BSOH, sorry, BSH is gett 4 stars is because of the quality of education that I have received at GCSE level, and for their teaching staff. Although I am still awaiting my results, I am at a far higher level than I would've been at had I stayed at my previous school. Teachers were absolutely

We agree with the previous comments, the school facilities are far from what you would expect for a private school, however, improvements are being made. We don t believe the facilities should be a parents main concern, surely it should be the standard of education the child receives - this is not lacking

The British School is a small friendly school attended by a lovely co-hort of pupils. I think it would be fair to say however that it is comparable to a good state school in the uk rather than a private school.

This school was really good, and there were some wonderful teachers there. The results were not bad, I got into Habs after this school. Some times the school failed to listen to the us, the pupils, and the school lunches were the worst there could be, but other than that the school was good. I really

Although the facilities cannot compete with other schools, we still learn alot and are not stressed our with homework or exams. The teachers are friendly, and so is the environment.

Excellent young and enthusiastic teaching staff with a fair sprinkling of more experienced staff who have taught in International schools. Buildings are improvng and visitors have to look beyond the building to the high level of teaching. Good range of afterschool clubs including free gutar and brass
