PHASE 1

Preparation for departure - the initial interview

Once you have made the decision to move abroad you will have to face the prospect of many new experiences. Education is just one of these. Your child(ren)will probably have to adjust to a different language and almost certainly to a different educational system. It is vital that as parents, you know what to expect and can have access to accurate information, so Edufax will provide you before departure with a clear picture of what your children are likely to encounter. more...
