I'm likely to accept an offer to move to Budapest with my family. This was done on local terms, thus i'm not being funded for private schooling...besides, I think we want them in Hungarian schools.
My wife's native tongue is Hungarian. My kids are 4 and 6...both understand a good amount of Hungarian and the older one speaks enough to survive. Between Hungarian school every other week and Grandma not speaking English during her long visits, they've figured enough out.
We want to send both kids to public schools, but two concerns:
1) What school will give them a good education? I presume the school is assigned based on location. Is there a school that may have a more diverse population? Those that may be better funded?
2) I saw in another post where kids may be made fun of for not having a strong basis in the language and perhaps having an accent. Any advice to prepare them for it or help avoid it? My oldest son makes friends quite easily (and has even done so on the playgrounds of Budapest) but he also is quite sensitive.
