Study / Primary/Secondary International Schools in Poznan [13]

Good day, I work for a financial services firm in the U.S. and am considering taking a two year assignment in Poznan within my company. I've already found this forum to an be extremely valuable source of information.

I would be coming over with my family, and would need to find English-language instruction for my son, who would be around 14 when we arrive.

I've been reading this forum with interest the last couple of weeks and see there is a thread for 2009 or so that doesn't speak too highly about the international schools in Poznan.

Anyone have any current feedback? Anyone have a student enrolled at an English language high school? There look to be only two options from what I've been able to find online.

Thanks in advance for any advice or information!

Many thanks, delphiandomine. Do you know the names or have contact info for any of the bilingual programs? I would be very interested in something like that. Looking on the web I couldn't find any Information in English.

I think I found a program at a public high school, II LO Poznań, but I would assume we wouldn't qualify to attend. The other name I saw was I Prywatne LO Poznań, but the information was only in Polish so I wasn't confident I was reading it correctly.

One additional point, my son is currently enrolled in a Catholic school so I certainly don't mind if the program was in a religious school.

Once again many thanks for the helpful info!

Hi Samba,

I do not have any additional information for you.

Our plan is to relocate to Poznan next year, so we would not be starting school until September 2014. Based on what I know now, I think we would look at ISOP and supplement with tutoring.

I haven't really found any alternatives, possibly because I'm not a Polish speaker and so I am limited in the source material I can find. But without being on the ground I'm really not in a position to give any feedback.

Good Luck! If possible, maybe you can post some advice based on your experiences.

Thanks
