Parent Stories

Every child is unique...

You always want the best for your child. But when it comes to making decisions about schools, it can be hard to know what the best might look like. And who knows better than other parents? They’ll tell you much more than we ever could.

Your child has their own personality and strengths. It’s what makes them special.

We help them learn in the way that works best for them, by supporting them academically, socially and emotionally. And with over 100 schools in 16 countries, your child gets to be part of something bigger. And thrive.

...and so are our schools

All our schools are different, but they’re all united on quality. We invest in our schools and teachers to help your children thrive. And it’s not just about grades. We want them to be ready for anything.

Safe and happy students

Your child’s safety and wellbeing always comes first. That’s why we have a leading safeguarding policy to make sure our students feel safe and our own wellbeing charter to make sure our students feel well at school and beyond.

Global opportunities

Your child’s education can take them anywhere. They can move to another Cognita school, get involved with exchanges and meet students from other countries and cultures. The door opens to a world of opportunity.

Learn from the best

We’ve got a global staffroom of over 18,000 colleagues. That’s a lot of expertise. We have excellent educational specialists and strong leadership. So whether it’s in the classroom or behind the scenes, we’re all here to give your child the best.
