Schools with an English curriculum in Kuwait

Hello The Nomad 99.

Welcome to Expat.com!

Hope you'll soon be helped by other members.

Thank you,
Aurélie

Thanks for the welcome note - are you here with your kids - which school are they in.

shes not in Kuwait, as u can tell by the number of her posts shes an administrator, and her location is Mauritius

try the sschool sticky posted by SaharEl, with English schools u get what u pay for im afraid, u can go for schools like Cambridge English School, but u sacrifice quality of education.

Dont penny pinch when it comes to your children's education. I am the product of The English School & The New English School, my parents weren't making money hand over foot but they made it work.

Thanks for the advice. The kids were in KNES and TEA last year - I can understand your thoughts about penny pinching but when you have 4 ......... I'd love to keep them where they are but needs must.

You cut your cloth according to your size.............

I know how you feel. I had 3 kids in school, one of them graduated this year and now going to college which I'm paying for. I had my kids in English school Fahaheel until they raised their fees. They will go to Kuwait international English school hawally now as they are the cheapest that I could find. You will not get less than 2500 KD and will pay for uniforms and books. Some people can't understand that you have to choose according to your income as most of the schools are the same in the end. Good luck!

Thanks a lot for your kind note.

Is English school fahaheel is a great school and the expat percentage is high? And  all the classes teachers are  British or no  what the weakness in the school

We visited English school Fahaheel on Sunday and were not happy at all.
Looks much worn out, paint peeling of the walls and the kids acted like robots with no fun or smiles on their faces.
We had no hand-outs to take away with us and the person who showed us around was very rude, she made us feel as if we shouldn't be there!

If this was a retail business it would be bust within a week of opening very bad "customer service".

I'm in the process of making a complaint to them, I'll let you know what they say if the can be bothered to come back to me………………..
