Considering your work experience and education background, the offered package is indeed a decent one, however could be negotiable till 3K. Some considerable international schools are available, the prominent ones are  Seeb International School (Formerly Azan Bin Qais Intl.),  Chuefat School etc that provide English as well as Arabic teachings.

Please go through Cost of living Section of this forum to get a brief idea.
