They had an amazing British Teacher in the early stages of opening. Often covering lessons where others constantly left. Always on time and always on call to speak with prospective parents outside of school hours. The teacher made sure that the children had resources and more, including supporting other part-time teachers. In brief, the school was in financial difficulty. Little did parents know! The teacher was not paid including 2 part-time English native speaking teachers. the latter who were asked to leave. When the British teacher was paid, the 'Owner' underpaid. The teacher was threatened (working visa would be cancelled) and was left with no choice but to leave. It's a shame! The teacher was understanding of the school's situation throughout and was patient and equally, supportive. The outcome is how they treated her in the end. This in itself is appalling leaving her homeless! They are not a high quality school delivering the British or International Curriculum...they don't have a clue on how to run a school. Nor do they have a proper Head Teacher. The man you see in the You Tube videos is not a Head Teacher. He is never there 99% of the time. It may seem like a great place to both parents and teachers alike, but many teachers have come and gone over the years. While they have more students now, their numbers are still few. This should say it all. Parents and teachers avoid. Teachers, if you are seeking a reference for all your hard work...forget it. They never have the courtesy to respond.

The school is run on a very limited budget. The SLT consists of one person the owner. This person has their own ideas of the truth and very rarely gives truthful answers unless it is definitely in their best interests.

Excellent School, lovely pupils, and staff! except for the Principal Mr. Barnaby, who has absolutely no balls and no idea of how to run a school, as he is a shitty qualified primary school teacher.

A very good school - execellent teachers and a friendly supportive administration. The school is relatively small, everyone knows each other, very friendly and family like. The campus is well equipped, exellent science labs and sports facilities. The standard of teaching is very high, GCSE and A Levels results are much higher than average. The pupils love this school and we, parents, have peaceful-mind knowing that our children get great education in a world-class school n in Moscow.

ESS Le Fort is a quality British school for expat and local families. The school is located in the ancient district of Moscow, named Lefortovo and it is very convenient for loving in the city centre. The school is academically very strong and follows the UK National Curriculum of England and Wales. The school has a modern active learning approach to the syllabus and strong ethos. The school campus is cosy, well equipped and enjoys a large green territory with all-weather pitch and play-areas for younger children. Small class sizes, usually under 12, ensure individual attention and a warm family like atmosphere. UK teachers and management, the programme of study is broad, and together with Maths, Sciences and Computing, includes a generous and rigorous programme for Humanities, Language Arts, Music, Dance, History of Arts and PE, including swimming.

The English school of Sciences is a wonderful school with excellent teachers and management. The children flourish here. The level of tuition is exceptional, the tests results (GCSE, SAT, ALevels) are much above the average. They provide bus service which is important for busy parents in a foreign city. Everyone is always very friendly and welcoming.

I am a Year 6 student of the English School of Science. It's super, I love it. It's my 4th school in 3 countries and the second one in Moscow. I love everything - the teachers, friends, clubs... ESS is the best!

Детей достаточно сложно вовлечь в учебный процесс, а этим учителям это удается, мои дети ходят с большим удовольствием и домашние задания делают все сами. У детей прекрасная мотивация и желание проявить себя. От того и результаты прекрасные. Очень радостная школа. Думаю, учителя делают своеобразное чудо!
