In the English Schools Foundation system, the school your child attends depends entirely on the neighborhood in which you live. This is the only private school system in Asia whose population is neighborhood (catchment) based.TheESF schools follow the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Program and Diploma Programwith a British National Curriculum emphasis. They also offer an Advanced Diploma, Intermediate Diploma and Foundation Diploma to cater to a range of students. School uniforms are worn until IGCSE level.
