[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know a World Bank employee who moved abroad and enrolled their kids in American boarding school with nearly all the tuition paid off. [/quote]

Damn! That's a sweet gig.[/quote]

Really? It's very normal when sending employees to a developing country to either pay for the kids to be in a private school or, if good local schooling options are not available, pay for them to stay in a boarding school.  People won't take those postings if the education of their children is going to suffer.  This is particularly the case with more senior positions as those staff are likely to be older and have children.  Also, don't forget taking an overseas posting may also mean a spouse leaving a job and losing the family losing that second income.[/quote]

I had a roommate in college whose parents' placements changed a bunch, so she just went to a boarding school in Europe from age 13 onward. I always thought that was kinda neat.[/quote]
