Why Knightsbridge House Is Challenging The Status Quo Of International Schooling

Much talk is made of the realignment of the world's geopolitics where power bases are shifting and the influence of one or two superpowers is waning as countries look for more economical and affordable solutions elsewhere. On a more micro level the same can be said of international schooling.

Historically, international schooling in South East Asia was dominated by schools who, like the super powers of the world, were able to show off top-dollar facilities in the form of sprawling multi-sports fields, modern theatres with all the digital bells and whistles, science labs with the latest biogenetic engineering as well as classes with every AI-enfused piece of software and hardware. All of this does not come cheap and if the latest educational research is to be believed the effect of these investments on students’ learning is undoubtedly not worth the spend.

John Fearon, the Founder of Knightsbridge House International School, knew that international schooling could achieve the same, if not better, academic results as the “super power” schools without relying on the attractions of elaborate, expensive facilities. By focusing on employing nurturing and inspiring teachers to deliver a world renowned international curriculum in comfortable, repurposed modern, commercial business centers he was able to devise a more economical and affordable international school, Knightsbridge House International School (KBH).

The frugal financial model is not the only impressive aspect of Knightsbridge House School. The academic programmed must also be noted for achieving results that prove that quality learning outcomes are not proportionate to school fees. KBH has proven, for more than three years now, that, on average, their learners out perform other international school learners in the Cambridge Assessments.  

Knightsbridge House International School is challenging the status quo through making international schools more accessible, by providing affordable, high quality international education.
