well the american academy in larnaka is supposed to be one of the oldest english schools in cyprus. and quite big for a cypriot private school.
despite being "american" they follow the english national curriculum, with O and A levels.
but i cannot really say that it is in any way better than the others.
all i can say is that it is going to cost you a bit bigfatlondonboy (what kind of name is that ? )

Hi bigfatlondonboy


My sister has 3 daughters, all enrolled into Med High last year, the eldest to do her A levels. On the first day of the school, they informer my niece that they are not doing A'Levels but something similar, something that none of us had heard of, so immediately, my sister enrolled her into the American Accademy. So far, Med High doesn't warrant the fees paid to them, but American Accademy exceeds expectations. I don't know anything about Pascal.

On another note, alot of Med High students are dropouts of American Accademy, so that kind of gives you an idea of standards of both these schools.

Can't you enroll her for next year then, for September when the new school year starts?

[bigfatlondonboy]
