There is no review of this school on this ISR, and it appears to have mostly host-country teachers and students. Do any of you have any information on the school?
Additionally, if anyone has any input about living in Mumbai as a Western family with young kids, I'd love to hear it!
Thanks in advance!
Anyone with info on Ecole Mondiale in Mumbai?
Ecole Mondiale
I spent a few days in IB training at Ecole Mondiale two years ago, so my only experience was short and not truly "inside".
The school was very welcoming of us. It was a major training event for Asia schools and Ecole Mondiale had plenty of assistants all over to direct and answer questions. The buildings seemed to be in excellent repair and everyone was very friendly, including the local teachers, who seemed to be VERY dedicated to their profession. True professionals who were interested in sharing their knowledge and experience and learning from others.
The weather is warm. This is always a major benefit in my book! On the other hand, Mumbai is the dingiest city I have ever experienced. It is very, very crowded--largely with people who possess nothing. The exhaust fumes and organic fumes are nearly overpowering at times, especially near major roads.
My personal experience directly with that particular school was very positive. As for the reviews, if no one is motivated enough to criticize, then that might be construed as positive.
I would have to research the city itself before I would commit. Good luck. If you DO end up there, please write a review!

Hi Gemini,
What I comprehend from your statement is that you and your family have recently moved in to Mumbai (India) from the west and are looking ahead for a good international school for your kids. Though there are many international schools operating in Mumbai, I would suggest you to go for Ascend International School.
AIS' primary curriculum is designed to give your child a solid academic foundation, keeping in mind a deep understanding of children’s developmental levels. The curriculum is both individualized and meaningful within the context of students’ lives.
AIS is a state of the art international school with highly qualified faculty and staff, innovative curriculum, individualized programs, experienced leadership and a progressive education model. In my view this school would be ideal for your kids’ education. For more information on the same, visit, www.ascendinternational.org/
