Children integration in a new school in Austria

I have no children so really can't comment much. But I do know that children adapt quicker than adults when learning a new language. So don't worry too much with them starting a new school with a basic knowledge of German. There are independent schools that teach in English, but they are very expensive €10,000 a year.

Just to add, all state schools are Free and are very good. English is taught as a second language with other options of learning others, French, Spanish but these are in high school.

Hello Bhavna

It all depends on what is the age of kids!! Younger once going in Kindergarten can get easily integrated from my experience.  There is no major problem.

Schools in Austria follow general pattern around world just they choose to call it differently. they have Kindergarten..Primary....Higher Secondary....Now from here the Austrian education system becomes complex and can be branched out in various streams. You will find more on internet.

I see  problem to kids if they are not willing to learn new language....
hope this helps

I was quite concerned about the transition from school and country to my children. In Austria they went to school that has many foreigners. My kids are adapting well, better than I imagined.
