EXPAT PACKAGE GOOD OR COULD BE BETTER???? May 16, 2007
I am getting concerned at all the messages re rent prices and school fees. What does a school term cost, roughly for british schooling? Also is a package with all housing, car and medical and flights a good package or should I be holding out for schooling also? Plus a salary of 290,000aed. Will this give us a good lifestyle.

Depends on the age of the child but look to be paying 50000PA+ for British Schooling 290000 = 24k PM, as long as all the other stuff including Schooling is covered is OK

What constitutes British schooling? The school where I did my IGCSE schooling in over here charges between 5000 and 7000 per year, depending on class. Good enough to get me into a top-5 engineering school in USA.

Arab Unity School. I mentioned those prices from their website, since I don;t remember my own fees. Did A-levels at St. Marys.
