Need advice on schools

Post new topic

Expertexpat

Hi all

We are contemplating a move to Dubai and my head is spinning from all the potential schools. We're moving from Kenya where our kids are in an international school. I think I've narrowed my options down to:
dubaibritishschool.ae :Dubai British School
eischools.ae: Emirates International School and
diadubai.com/: Dubai International Academy
I'd love to hear your experiences with these schools so that I can narrow it down to 2. Also, please let me know if there are any others that you think are worth considering.
Thanks!

Hi Expert expat,

I am in the same boat as you i am moving to Dubai shortly did you get any feedback on schools my son is ten and we are looking at Jumeriah Village to stay.

Would appreciate if you got anywhere on the schools ?

Nary a peep Scots Lad!
Surprising as people are normally quite free with their info out here. I had resorted to just going and playing it by ear.
I'll ask around on some other forums and post back here if I hear anything.

Cheers.

I would just like to tell anyone moving to Dubai who has children and is having trouble finding schools about my experience.
I had the help of a lady called Fiona Coutts she is an Education Consultant in Dubai.My 2 children are 5yrs and 7years and we were given 2 months notice of moving from Paris.My husband tried many schools and we were told they were full.My husbands HR Dept put us in touch with Fiona and after several skype calls and exchange of documents/reports she had offers for our children in 2 schools one of the schools said they already had wait lists.
Fiona was amazing she took care of everything for us and all within 3 weeks.We would not have been able to take this opportunity without her help.For anyone in this position I cannot recommend her highly enough.
