Dwight School Seoul
Reviews & Information

Dwight is a horrible school, it is miles behind other international schools, the worst characteristic of this school is the teachers since most of them are not even qualified. The school is not really international since most of the kids here are Korean obviously and they take up around 80% of all kids for this reason, you will hear more Korean than English every single day. Teachers bring a lot of discussion in this school and especially after a teacher was caught having sexual intercourse with a student outside of school, almost all teachers have heavy preferences especially male teachers towards female students. The school also has a major preference towards Asian students and heavily diminishes other students such as white students due to their historical past of having a certain domination towards Asians and other races. This school is absolutely horrible and it's crazy expensive so doesn't even bother to send your child here because you will regret it and your child will have the worst time of his academic life and I could say this because my child was heavily left out from his teachers for being a straight white male which in this school seems to be illegal apparantely and was heavily bullied by his teachers.

This school is a cesspit filled with very competitive pretentious rich kids who have a superiority complex and will make others feel inferior due to them getting a lower grade. Punishments are often unfair and teachers are really strict. It is not worth the amount of money. And although this school may look like an international school, don't be fooled as only a third of the kids at this school are from different countries.

Music program is terrible. Children in upper school are put in band regardless of their level in an instrument. The campus is small, and does not offer enough outside space for kids. The school has many stairs with classes like P.E in the basement with classes like Math/Science immediately after on the 5th of 4th floor.

Best international IB school in Korea. Two of my kids love the school. Dwight values the parents and students voices.

Communist school. Teachers control the students and manipulate their grades. No textbook curriculum makes it difficult for students to do assignments. Students are all discouraged from going to their dream uni. Don’t send your kid here, they won’t acknowledge your abilities.

Opinion : actually wanted to give no stars... Conclusion: Very Poor school system. IB philosophy itself is great but how it’s been practiced in this school is in my opinion not in line with the philosophy. Just to name a few, grading system is not clear nor transparent. It is not even well explained to students. Some Teachers are also confused of Dwight Seoul IB School System. This really discourages students. Not worth spending your money here for IB education. Do not be mislead. Please take a look around few big schools in Korea and compare how those other schools run their school system for students. Then decide. Also, when in doubt it’s not worth discussing issues with the Dwight Seoul nor try to understand how Dwight Seoul runs its school system. Just transfer to another school and save your time and energy for the best interest of your child.
