    I disagree, I think it was AO, who took his daughters out of international school to put them in a good Thai school, but I don't think he posts here anymore.
    My first hand experience of what happened with my kids in a reasonable Thai Private School is all the evidence to know I am correct. Talking about taking children out of a poor International Schhol is a different issue.

    Indeed I am back from another holiday, and I just so you don't worry, I'm away on a golfing weekend from friday til Monday...just in case you worry like.

    You never sent me your CV, not that you'd be interested in catching the gravy train I guess....

    ^^Exactly, it's not black and white... there are "bad" international schools and "good" Thai schools.... but I don't know of any good Thai secondary schools

    No Thai school is going to give children the quality of English language education required.

    My nine year old still struggles with spelling after a year in Thai school, when he should have been learning the early years of Phonics. My 7 year old who did not have that year in Thai school is better at thinking out spellings that the 9 yo.

    Once he had some lines to learn for a speech given in English. The grammar was awful, so I rewroite it and told him to do it correctly. I don't even need to tell you what happened next, you've all lived here long enough.
