How are international schools structured legally and financially?
(See also question 6). The status and legal standing of an international school reflects the regulations governing public and private education of the host country. This determines questions of recognition, freedom in curricular matters, admission of local nationals, public funding etc. International schools are generally financed largely or entirely through the tuition fees paid by parents of students. These may be covered by the companies for whom they work. Depending on the local political climate, the legal status and degree of official recognition, a school may also receive some public funding.
