Just wondering if anyone would like to share their experiences of the schools in AUH? Considering a move there and wondering what are considered the better options. Many thanks for any feedback.:)

what Kind of school ?? |
Primary & Secondary
Sorry - thought it was obvious - but perhaps only to me!
|
1. The British School -- Al Khubairat http://www.britishschool.sch.ae/
2. Abu Dhabi International (Pvt) School http://www.aisuae.com/ 3. Al Rayyan National Pvt School, Abu Dhabi http://www.alrayyanschool.com/ Start from here. If you are already speaking to your future employer in AUH, they should be able to help too. |
Thanks
Thanks Fractional. I have the school names. I was hoping to get some tips/info from personal experience about them - what they are like etc.
The British school have advised 3+ year waiting list, RIS and Cambridge also full. |
Schools
Sorry, no e-mail addresses with me,
American international school- AISA Australian school Canadian school. ( New facility in Khalifa looks really good) Giggles,( Ok enough already) No longer only a nursery school, but now up to Grade 6, I think) Keep trying Cambridge. Might be full, but always room for one or two more. |
From what I heard, the English or American schools are the most appropriate for Western kids (and I include the Aussies, Canadians, Japanese, etc.) I believe the Japanese and the French have their own schools up and running along with the Indians, Pakistanis and Filipinos.
During beer sessions, I get to know the other schools are also good but the ambience is not exactly what your kids would like to have in age group of 12-18 and if you a Westerner. I hope you undertand what I mean. I suggest you have a word with other people you know and are ahead in Abu Dhabi. Yes, they must be full and with a long waiting list because of the recent growth in the city being EY the most responsible for it. |
Get your wife to look at the expatwoman boards. My wife is an addict. There is a lot of information and opinions on schools and the like. She has just informed me that there is a Abu Dhabi board. Worth a try.
