Riyadh - School Report Question and Answers

What services are provided for speakers of English as a second language at this school? Please describe your experience with these services, if applicable.

Based on hard figures and my students' friends, I would estimate that approximately 80% of AIS-R students are non-native speakers. This is not because many are international students who have to go to AIS-R because there is no other schooling alternative for them, but rather, children of Arab parents who just want their kids to go to an "American" school. Despite this, there is limited ESOL services especially at the younger grades. They combine ESOL with their learning support services. - Mar 2017
