Actually my kids attend AISG because after close exam of Clifford International School and my wife touring the school, in addition to long discussions with many parents that are in fact pulling their kids out of Clifford International School, in addition to the well-known poorly run administration, or lack thereof, as well as the numerous rats that were running all over the property which Clifford International School has done nothing about, in addition to the many well known incidents of abuse, neglect, and or assaults on students living in the Clifford International School boarding schools while also being treated like prisoners, the decision to attend AISG was short and sweet. Not surprising, many parents where I currently do business have also decided to send their kids to AISG as well after they all made well informed decisions. Clifford International School is not one of the valid considerations that most parents would make for their kid's education while living in China while also being informed enough to know that there are many other options available to them with similar pricing and better services. I have yet to notice rats running around AISG. I am more than certain that there must be some qualified teachers at Clifford International School, but all in all, AISG is the better choice for a kid's future in my opinion. As for your fear of the Communist Party of China, you can keep on watching what you say and living in fear of the boogie man. Communism and education don't mix and it is a well known fact.
