PRE-SCHOOLS/PROGRAMS are also available for foreign residents. Some international schools offer a pre-school program, but there are also stand-alone pre-schools in some of the areas in which expats live/work. The cost may be higher than that in your home country and not all companies cover pre-school costs. For most of the program, children must be around 2 1/2 - 3 years old or older.
