This is Manish from India and i would soon be moving to Norway-Stavanger. I have a kid who is close to 3 years.
Could you please guide me about difference between public schools and private schools in stavanger.
I have also heard public school education is free but one problem that my child can encounter is language. Is curriculum in English or nowegian?
I know he will enter kindergarten but could you give me an idea of environment of free public schools...like language spoken...curriculum etc etc...

Here your kid would go to a kindergarten, which is not a school. It's more a day care so you can't think of it having a curriculum like what you would see in India or some other countries. They just play and have fun. You will find the system extremely relaxed compare to India. The cost for a public kindergarten is 28K NOK per year. I guess the international school there has also it's own facilities, but I am not sure what they offer.
