The presence of international schools in Zehlendorf and Dahlem is one of the main reasons so many expats settle here. The American-German JFK School (www.jfks.de), with grades 1 through 13, is the best-regarded of the tuition-free state-governed international schools in Berlin. The Quentin Blake School (www.quentin-blake-schule.cidsnet.de) is a tuition-free English-German primary school, and the Berlin International School (www.berlin-international-school.de) is a private primary and secondary school. The Berlin-Brandenburg International School (www.bbis.de), in nearby Kleinmachnow, is a private primary and secondary school that offers boarding for grades 9-12 as of fall 2008.
