Barbados

  • Barbados pre-schools used by expats

    We don't necessarily visit playschools, nurseries or kindergartens and definitely don't look at them as thoroughly as the primary and secondary schools (and only publish full GSGI write-ups on them if they are part of a primary or K-12 school), but these are amongst the ones in Barbados recommended or mentioned by parents.

  • Barbados schools considered by expats

    The Codrington School, Address: St. John, BB 20008, Barbados, West Indies. Co-ed, nondenominational, ages 3-13. Offers the IB Primary Years Programme. The lower school is comprised of 53 students, while there are 15 in the upper school.

  • Educational overview of Barbados

    The Barbadian Education system is modeled very closely after the British system, though as many British expats are quick to point out, it’s the British system of 40 years ago. Despite gaining independence from the UK in 1966, educationally very little seems to have changed. Many of the schools here date back several hundred years, to the early days of British colonization.

  • Expat living in Barbados

    Hard to imagine anything's been left out of this excellent, practical expat overview by Jennifer Allen, of what must be the most beguiling posting of them all.

  • For Barbados mothers with children under 5 (+ misc family entertainment generally)

    Welcome to Barbados! By now you have probably spent your first weekend enjoying the beautiful beaches, basking in the sun, and are probably even nursing your first sunburn. Then Monday comes and suddenly you find yourself staring directly into the face of your toddler with no clue what to do next.
