Amman - School Report Question and Answers

Are the admissions and placement procedures clearly stated to prospective families, either on the school website or through other means of communication?

Admissions and placement procedures were clear but the MOST extensive of any of the schools my children have attended. Also, one child was accepted and my other child wasn't accepted for 3-4 weeks which was very stressful. There wasn't great or very friendly communication from ACS during this process. - Jul 2022
