For Rebecca

  • Strange, we may be moving to Kuwait!
    The BSB and St Chris' both do A levels and GCSE, but only St Chris' do the IB if you don't want to go down the A level route.
    As for the best school, I'm biased, I think BSB is the best. We found St Chris' to be on par with a UK comp, but really 'cliquey' and expensive too. For year 10 2009 - 2010, St Chris is 300 BD MORE than BSB.
    BSB are moving to a new school campus in Sept where the whole school will be based and the facilities are amazing! The staff have always been friendly and easy to speak to about anything. St Chris', well, they weren't.
    My son has been to both and he says that St Chris' was the worst school he's been to, including the UK comp.
    Lots of folk have had different experiences, there's a thread on these forums, I think it's called St Chris V BSB. The students posting from St Chris come over as very brash and arrogant - to me anyway - and we found them to be the same in real life. I know there are some lovely teachers and students there, but the bad far out weighed the good for us.
