International School

How are pilots deciding where to enroll their kids in the UAE or Qatar?
Coming from the US for example, do you have to enroll in American school?
Would a British or other international curriculum suffice?
Just curious on how pilots with kids make the decision to pick an adequate school for their love ones. It seems like some facilities are more expensive than others.

You don't "have" to enroll in any particular ciriculum, and I know Canadian and American families with Kids in the British system.

There is s a Website named Expatwoman (note singular), kind of PPRUNE for Ex-pat wives (and at times ALMOST as bitchy!) which is a good resource.

There are some excellent British schools in Dubai (and some average ones as well) and the non-profit, Govenor run ones (DESS, Jess and DC come to mind) do a great job at a good price.

Hi Deconneur
Have more than good experience with 2 kids on the DESS. Try dessdubai dot com to get more insight.
All the best and good luck.
