    Discovery Bay Schooling

    we are moving, hopefully to Discovery Bay, from the UK at the end of July. Can anyone tell me what the International School is like there, and if anyone has any idea of waiting list times for Year 1.

    Thank you for demonstrating that they are not very successful at teaching spelling and grammar.

    there are other choices

    My kid goes just finished primary 1 at Bauhinia (an ESF school) and we have been pretty pleased with the school. Around 400 kids go to Bauhinia school (forty minutes by bus, one way)

    The waiting list is not that long any more at DBIS so you should'nt have a problem putting your kid in it.
