Hi my family will be moving to Dubai from Riyadh during the summer.

My husband will be working at Internet City and we plan to live near by (the southern end of town).

We have two boys (native English speakers) aged 7 & 11 who are very bright. I'm looking for a school with a strong academic focus that will suit children who are very focused and keen to learn.

Thanks Chocmad.

We are planning a trip to Dubai in late May to visit schools. I'll make sure I contact the ones you've mentioned and try to schedule interviews & tours with them.
