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

Thanks for that, so need to negotiate for schooling to be added into package?

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.

I am afraid that is not available now at those prices, which one was it? St mary's?

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