Comparison between IIPS & Middle East

Depends on lots of things like quality of teachers, location, carriculam, management, fees, transportation facility / distance from your accommodation etc etc.

IMHO most of the schools are run with little attention given to kids and their education, most are grounds where parents / teachers can show off and education is given less priority. Then again I cannot blame them, they are trying to manage this with spouses / daughters of expats living here of whom very few have real teaching experience.

To sum up , it does not matter which school or which carriculam your kids go to - depends on them in what they learn from there. Both schools mentioned above are fine in my opinion. You only need to analyze them based on the parameters mentioned above.
