Life / School system in Poland? [59]

Greetings all!

I am about to move to Poznan with family for work. I am very much concerned about the Schooling for my children (age 13 and 5 ) as they donot know any polish and can only speak English. Do any good English School exist in this area? May I get the insight of some quality of schools (English) in Poznan area including the fee structure. Is POlish language a Must requirement in these schools? Also, if some body can give insight of Poznan area from an international perspective would be quite appreciated.

Thanks

Kamnad

Life / School system in Poland? [59]

I would very much like to send my children to Polish school and to learn Polish language and culture, but the fact remains that one of my daughter is already in 8th grade of an English Convent and it will not be easy for her to study all the subjects (Math, English, Geography, Arts, Chemistry, Physics etc) in Polish . PLus she has to take her O' level (Cambridge )exam in next two years. I just had a thought that there must be some people like as migrating from Canada, US or UK to Poland under similar circumstances. Usually in many countries there are English schools for children of foriegn officials living different countries for missions or so.

There are in fact bilingual classes in public schools that are learing some subjects in foregin language.
Most of the top rated scholls had this kind of classes recently.

Thanks Lukasz for an encouragement. I wonder if you may recommend me some names of schools in Poznan vicinity or related sites to look more into.

You will have to see if Poland actually participate in the Cambridge O' Level, this is an international qualification and not to be mistaken with an English O' Level qualification.

You are absolutely right Shelleys. I will check it with the schools. Thanks for the feedback.

PoznaƄ British International School

Many Thanks Krzystof for site recommendations. I have checked these and are quite hopeful. I will contact them now for more info.
