Assuming I pass all the background checks and visa process, I'll be moving to Dhahran Camp in Jan/Feb and ideally I would be joined by wife and kids (15/f and 12/m) in summer months. We are a Dutch/Indonesian family and our children have been in international schools all of their lives but with a child in grade MYP4 in an IB school (Yr10 British), it is vital that we continue with IB. Some British schools don't even allow IB students at this point in secondary school.

I've been looking for good IB schools in EP/Bahrain but cannot see many options, which is really worrying as it might prevent us from bringing the family into the region. Would Riyadh be better? Is anyone able to give any guidance or share any experiences? Thanks
