Default Help needed to find a good Goa school

We are expats considering relocation with our employer to Goa. We are looking to identify schools in Goa for our children that have an international-style education with a multi-cultural school population. Probably prefer private however this isn't the key priority.
Our children are aged 7 to 11 years old.
Would greatly appreciate any updates on schools that may fit this criteria. Alternatively would appreciate any feedback on positive experiences at schools with expat kids attending non-multicultural Indian schools.
Thanks in advance!

I do not know of any personally but I have a few friends who have put their children in local schools. Good luck.

Agree with Chrisjolly, however will depend where you will be working, North Goa or South Goa since roads are narrow and commute could take long.
The 2 types of schools are ICSE and CBSE board of education which is a higher level than the local state board schools.
Sharda Mandir, Mater Dei, Sunshine are all in North Goa whereas Manovikas and Vidya Vikas are in Margao, which is in South Goa. There are a couple of ISCE and CBSE schools in Vasco. However there is no IGCSE school yet in Goa.

My son goes to mount litera zee school - check out their website. They have their own books (curriculum) they have developed, start computer studies at 6 years old and claim to have a more modern outlook than most Indian schools. It is nr the airport and I believe kids travel there from margao, panjim, old goa, ponda as well as vasco area. They also take admissions throughout the school year, i think
