About Charter International School

Charter is a ‘family’ school, where its youngest and oldest students work and live happily side by side, and its favourable pupil-teacher ratio means that each child is an individual and receives the needed academic and social support.

Questions to ask the school

  2. Can you support a child with my child's specific need (e.g. dyslexia, ADHD, autism), and have you done so this year? Ask for concrete examples.
  3. Is there an additional fee for learning support or EAL — and how much per year?
  4. Is learning support guaranteed for the full enrolment, or can it be withdrawn later?
