ReplyDeleteGuys you can check out this good new school called Bannister Academy situated within Circulo Verde along Calle Industriya, Quezon City. Its a co-ed school which just started recently. I heard that the education they give and the faculty members are superb and top class like that of schools outside the Philippines and can also categorized under Paref Schools. My cousin who will be graduating in Primary School this March will be enrolling in that school and he seems so excited. Its a rare sight to see a mere child so eeager and excited to enter high school. You can see their website yourselves to see what they can offer. This is one of the private schools here in Metro Manila that you shouldn't forget to consider.
