[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t know much about it but find it odd that they advertise so heavily and sponsor events. Is that typical?[/quote]

I’m the previous poster who commented on having moved from a top-3 school to BISW. It’s funny that you say this because since we moved to BISW, my constant criticism to the administration has been on why they do not promote the school more and they do not more heavily promote themselves like other top DC schools do. The response I get is that they cater to a specific market (international/expat community) and they have to be careful not to change the fabric and identity of the school community.

The school is part of a larger family of schools around the world (Nord Anglia), which owns and runs usually the top schools in countries they go in (from Latin America to Asia). Nord Anglia is a for-profit company. I guess if it was in their business interest, they would promote more, and if they don’t, it must not make business sense.[/quote]
