British International College, Sandton

I enjoyed the environment, the set up and atmosphere in the school. Teachers and staff are friendly regardless of nations or race. A real example of Rainbow Nation. A little expensive just like any international school; but worth it.

British International College will not release my son's results from 2010 UNTIL I pay for 2011. Note that the full year fees are payable in advance for the year*********** It is up to the parent to initiate communication, and then it's always on deaf ears. They have not initiated a single communication with me in a year unless it’s about MONEY. They make their own rules and twist the contract to fit their own back handed motives. I feel they hold students back so that the college can achieve a 100% pass rate and another year tuition fees. Complaints & queries are brushed aside and the tables turned with hogwash blabber, even when you are lucky enough to get a meeting booked with someone of authority. Thats when the Dean arrives for them! Anybody else you meet with will not be able to advise as they do not know the Dean's modus operandi, they promise to revert, but that's where it ends. The admin staff are rude, dismissive and untrained in BIC processes. An example is Exam timetables are in such a mess that the student arrives for an exam that either has already been sat or will be sat on another day. They accept NO responsibility and are grossly unprofessional
