The local schools are really hard to get into - you need to sit an exam and hundreds of expat children sit the exam, maybe 20 get places in schools.
International school fees start at $25k per year, per child, for shitty schools. Top of the range schools are more like $38k per year.
Homeschooling is more like $5k/year so I thought we'd try it, because compared with international school fees it was a cheap experiment.
Both boys also said homeschooling was their first choice, here. Not sure if they still feel that way lol
We might still send them to school but the money we saved meant we could have a holiday in Australia and then two weeks in China as a family.
