Questions to ask before choosing a school

Whether you are on the lookout for a primary or a high school near you, sending your child to a good educational institution is always a priority. Here are a few questions to ask yourself before finalising a school:

• How accessible is it from your home? You will not want your child to spend long hours in travelling and have inadequate time for homework, rest and play.
• Is a private school near you better than a public one? If you are keen on the former, bear in mind that the school fees for each year are often significantly higher than a public school.
• Does it have the right culture? Don’t just evaluate a school’s academic performance but enquire if it is involved in community activities and if it supports children with special needs.

Let these questions serve as a guide to help you find a school of your preference. Browse our extensive listings for top schools near you.
