I don't know much about the cost of living in the Turks and Caicos, but if you are definately going and have some concerns about the education system, you could look into some of the homeschooling curriculums that are available...Calvert comes to mind, and is probably the biggest.  If you buy the package they give you everything, down to the crayons, to complete the course, and you can chose how much teaching they get from calvert themselves.  The lessons are planned out day to day to day, so you just open the book and go, which makes it easy, and you get an entire grade package.  All the kids I know who have done this have a good solid education and have no trouble re-entering the school system.

Most of the people I know from the islands....Bermuda, Bahamas, St. Martin and St. Kitts, say that there are public school, which are underfunded by our standards, and maybe don't provide the depth and breadth of education you might hope for, and most islands also seem to have private schools.

Hope that helps.
