How would you rate Mougins School?
Dysfunctional on so many levels. Huge turnover of students and staff. There is a good reason they don't publish their results!!! It's money, money, money, for everything... forget your lunch badge and your parents receive an invoice for 鈧10 instantly, ask for a teacher meeting, good luck with that; as soon as your 10 minutes - on line Zoom meeting - is up, screen goes blank. Headmaster is a very accomplished car park attendant; you can see him every morning directing traffic. If you think this makes him accessible, just try to engage him in any type of conversation that might distract him from his primary function of traffic control! He doesn't want to know; arrogant, supercilious person. He should spend more time managing the school and trying to improve teacher retention and results; as well as engendering real, meaningful communication across the whole school.
Very bad value for money. Teaching poor, facilities dated, no communication.
Don't send your child there if you are looking for A/AS level. Rigged system and academically low. Certain subjects are on a low level like Humanities (History, Geography). Core subjects are weak (English/Maths). Favoritism to certain students mainly kids of staff. Bullying rife. not value of money. Focusing on making money out of the parents without any good services in exchange. Inexperienced Head and weak management. Some teachers unqualified and need to go but they don't. After Brexit, difficulties surrounding the school. Globeducate the owner of all schools in the region of Cote D'Azur.
School with huge potential but badly managed. Inexperienced Head and weak management team. Bullying rife. Quality education is not offered, neither is value for money.
It is a school with many issues although it looks promising from outside. In reality, it has a PTA head who has been there since four years just with the approval of limited number of school parents and certain group of teachers. Favoritism is the main address of the school. Don't depend on a fair treatment or organized system available. Not recommended in the cote D'azur (South of France). Headmaster with no experience and only cares to achieve Glodeducate Financial targets.
PTA of that school is really Rotten, favoritism to certain students. Academically is low. Sports are on low level. Some teachers are not qualified and needs training. Over-employment and teachers contracts have to be reviewed. Most of students leave after GCSEs. If you are looking for a British system, don't search in the south of France, either you go directly to UK or swap to the US system from Form 9. School marketing only for social activities and facilities. Core subjects are very weak.
One of the worst in the South of France, still working with the old system of the retired headmaster. Five headmasters left the school before being sold. All buildings are rented and not owned or fire alarm prepared by the new owner Globeducate. Biased system favor of sons and daughters of the teachers. Be prepared to pay euros 20,000/student a year and another tutoring fees in case your son/daughter needs help. Poor management. Disorganized staff and rotten PTA. Not recommended if you are moving to the Cote D'Azur.
One of the worst schools in the south of France, really overpriced and bad management of the COVID matters. Incapable nurse at the school, families are not informed when there are any COVID cases in class not even with an email. Cafeteria food is really bad and not hygienic. Arrogant teachers and zero capability of listening.
You will face a high fees once registered (range 15-20 Thousands Euros). Low level of English despite it is a British school due to the incapable and low quality of English teachers. French language and Technology are on a low level. No Internet or tablets provided. Science Teachers are very good however in the secondary they don't offer Triple Sciences it is only combined (2 GCSEs). Rigged system somehow and biased without any fairness or proper evaluation due to unorganized and weak management. Health matters are a disaster specially in the times of COVID. The School nurse is incapable and lacks communication with the parents. Not recommended if you are looking for a proper school in the south of France.
School is poorly managed with a lot of attention to public relations issues and not focusing on teaching at all. The quality of English teachers is appalling, unacceptable for a British school. ICT & computer science teacher left overnight and hasn't been replaced greatly damaging all the students who have to take their GCSEs exams. The new group owners of the school are only interested in making money. Note that the current owners are the same who owns (ICS, ISN & Mougins) all in the Cote D'Azur (French Riviera).
Not a proper school, English level is a disaster, French level is very low. Academically far behind and expensive to its level. Teachers leave in the middle of the course and lots of students are screwed. Think carefully before moving there.
Academically is very poor, quality of teachers especially english level is very low. No follow up with parents except when you get surprised by reports at the end of each semester. Think 100 times before joining given the exit of England from Europe.
Beautiful campus in the south of France but with lots of problems. Potentially could be better but this is not the case. Overpriced to your expectations. Low quality of English teachers although it is a British school. Not recommended for many reasons: poorly managed, unorganized, poor level of languages, unclear roles of PTA for some parents and only doing things for their own interest. Technology not up to the level of nowadays especially accessing to the internet for students, copying somehow the 色控传媒 of Monaco (ISM), the group who bought the school focusing on making money rather than academics. Do not get impressed by the facility and parents coffee mornings as this will not help your child. Lost a deputy head and another head of school with excellent capabilities given all of the above mentioned.
A school with too many problems, weak management and unclear roles of PTA people (who are parents at school acting as if they are the head or director of the school, only working for their own interests). Think twice before taking your child there, don't get impressed by the facilities given that it is in the south of France (Cote D'Azur), academics on a low level not up to the expectations especially languages (English & French), teachers quality is an issue. Biased system and rigged towards sons and daughters of school staff. Most of teachers did not get any training since years or how to deal with children and motivate them.
The school has management issues and in one year they changed 4 headmasters. Until the school were sold to Globeducate which only focuses on financial matters and how to achieve the most profits than academic benefits for the students. There is also a problem of the Brexit, so if you are planning to move to the south of France, don't choose to join an English school in France. Another thing, system inside is mainly rigged as it is in favor of the sons and daughters of the school stuff. No fairness and biased. The current head of the school in too young to handle such position means not enough experience to manage. Racism and bullying matters are existing in that school, unfortunately in today's world which still is a fact undeniably.

I attended Mougins School from 4 till 15 (I'm now turning 30). I absolutely loved my experience there; it genuinely felt like a family. Independent thought was always encouraged, the environment was incredibly nurturing, and it was set in a really beautiful location. I will always have incredibly fond memories of my time at Mougins.
