Hi, my husband and I, plus our 3 school aged children are thinking about teaching in UAE.

What is it really like for children ie safety, schooling, meeting new people?

Is it possible for both of us to be teaching in the same school, and our children attend that school?

Any advice and information would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

    Hello Janine;

    Welcome to the forum! Some positions will include allowances for dependants’ education and relocation costs, this will be listed on the job posting under teaching benefits.This is something that you can also discuss with your placement coordinator once you are connected with them if you are chosen for an initial interview

    I hope this helps and my recommendation is to apply to the positions that you are interested in
    Best,
