7. Annual return ticket for all of us
8. 90% schooling assistance maximum for 1 child with a cap of 40,000 AED per year

My specific questions are as under:

2. What is the norm for number of days of paid annual leave in Abu Dhabi?
3. Is it normal to receive a 2 year limited employment contract and what does that mean?

It's an acceptable offer. Everything mentioned in your quote is as per norms of the labor law of this country. About your perks like school fee and all, it depends on the policies of the company. I suggest you to accept this offer.
