How would you rate Brussels 麻花视频 Catholic School?
This school treats their teachers HORRIBLY. They are unfair, unreasonable, and unethical. DO NOT send your child here.
Students may get very low grades as some teachers teaching the A-Levels (year 12-13) and GCSEs are not qualified. That is for the English Language subject (history teacher teaching linguistics is a joke). It's very expensive and students waste their time by being forced to go to the mass every day! Can tell you that you get nightmares for a good year or two after leaving the school! Got higher grades after going to another school abroad. And having to wear that costume even when it's super hot is crazy! They don't have a proper room for gymnastics (it's outside in the park whatever the weather).
Absolutely horrible. Do not recommend unless you are a very strict catholic. Facilities and the school itself is very low quality.
The school is horrible, they force you to strictly believe in the religion they are preaching even though before we enrolled they made us believe this school was a welcoming and open-minded institution. This school brought nothing but misery, not to mention the teachers made it worse by being vindictive, racist, sexist and relied heavily on favouritism to deduce an assessment of a student. Furthermore, the priests especially do not allow nor understand anyone who has a different way of thinking or belief that differs from theirs. Making it very difficult to communicate or feel included and seen. The teachers rarely want to understand your view and even hang together to bring you down. Overall, if you aren鈥檛 a very strict catholic who heavily focuses their life on the religion, and are not okay with any form of discrimination against other students, this school is definitely not for you. The only thing you will miss out on by coming to this school is expensive therapy sessions.
I have only one thing to say. This school is total depression and super strict. One of the priest behaves horribly with us saying discriminatory things and forcing us to believe what he says even tho he says we aren't forced. There's a lot more issues apart from this And.. WHY DO WE PLAY IN A FREAKING GARAGE!!!I hate it

My daughter has been at BICS for five years now, and we have nothing but positive experiences to report. The teachers are fantastic, and the bilingual education (French and English) is of a very high standard. Academically the level is demanding. The music teaching is superb. My daughter has learned her Catholic faith here, she has learned the value of hard work and discipline, of friendships and she also has a lot of fun. It is a kind and happy school. It is a place where children can really flourish. Since it is a truly international school, my daughter has met children from around the world and this in itself is a valuable education.

Having studied at BICS for 8 years from end of primary till sixth form, I will always remain grateful for the lifelong values that the school has taught ; amongst them the preciousness of true friendships, and the understanding of people from other backgrounds and cultures. Throughout the years I have managed to become fluent in both English and French from scratch, a testimony to the incredible work done by the teachers at this institution. The school also offers to its pupils the opportunity to participate in its annual opera shows, which I highly recommend as it allowed students to appreciate the joy in singing ,and to learn more about what it takes for a theatrical production to succeed. In sixth form, students are guided by competent professors while facing the obvious academic rigour. Looking back, I believe the professors in A levels were right in being stricter at the beginning; Although many disliked them for their demanding course, pupils do come to realise later that it was necessary. All in all, I cherish deeply the memories I have from the close-knitting community BICS has provided; and remain thankful for the widening of my knowledge through interactions with peers from all around the world.

Since i have to put a star, the maximum anyone can ever give is a one. The school also gave me depression.

Beautifully decorated but.. Extremely strict and Catholic. Rude, uncaring, unfriendly, arrogant, money hungry head (opinion of teachers and parents alike). Big staff turnover (unfortunate as we lost a lot of the good teachers). Lost one of the best pre primary English teachers this year and a very nice male staff member in the secondary section. Classes are packed of up to 31 children!! Refused to recycle till now that pressure has been put on them. Constantly changing teachers in a class during the school year! Minimum communication with parents and teachers. Feels like an establishment that only cares about getting richer, monetarily. They have a new deputy head now which is hopefully an improvement as the previous one was simply terrible. Just read the many reviews on the Web. The school took many of the bad reviews out.

In December 2017, when it was snowing in Brussels and the entire traffic came to a halt, students who came late to school were forced to stay 20 minutes outside in the freezing cold, as punishment for their parents鈥 disorganization. It sure taught children a valuable lesson: that life is unfair and they will get punished for the sins of others. So there you have it: a true catholic school straight from the days when child abuse was a perfectly acceptable education method.
