Overall I am [u'>very thrilled[/u'> with Park House. I have a one in year 3 and we are waiting on placement for our 2nd child to year 1. What I see as positives: Great mix of nationalities. Price compared to extracurricular offerings is exceptional. Our Teacher is strict but fair. High expectations for the kids, but some tailoring to level. Arabic and reading for example are based on level. There is a strong sense of community at the school. It's small enough to be personable but big enough to offer extras to the kids. The Negatives: Pick up and Drop off is awful. They have tried many strategies to alleviate including the new divided road as a temporary measure, this but you can't change the driving in Doha. A few of us Car pool to alleviate our stress! There is a wait list to get in. So there is a lot of luck. We only got one in. We applied in November for spots for the next year and didn't find out until April that we got in. Hope this helps! Cbecons
