I am a primary school teacher and would love to move from the UK to Dubai with my child who at the moment is 7 years old. He would be 8 or 9 at the time of relocation.

I have read different things with regards to single parents being accepted in Dubai. I have been separated from my husband for 3 years and am going through divorce proceedings.

I know that one of the benefits of teachingin a school in Dubai is that dependents can attend that particular school. This would be ideal!!!

Please could someone advise me whether this is a dream I should pursue or will I just hit brick walls?

Thanks

nothing ventured , nothing gained - so go for it

good luck

Arnie couldn't have given you better advice. I don't know of any single parents working in Dubai but I'm sure there are, hopefully one of them will respond with advice.

Either way good luck in whatever you decide.

No ofcourse you will be fine, i know a couple of single mums. (some of them on this forum, speak up you know who you are )

Best of luck with the move !!

Thanks so much for your positive responses. I am going to get myself in gear and begin my search for work for next year

Thanks again
