Hi,

Iam planning to move to the Uae with a job offer of 46000 starling pounds a year. The only problem is, the company won't pay for my children's education. One in college and one in primary school. My husband will be also working and earning good salary too. Medical housing and all the rest is paid for though.

Please let me know if it's all worthwhile to take the opportunity and if British Schools are affordable?

Thank you.

F.A

You haven't mentioned the salary of your husband, even though you can accept this offer if the accommodation expense is paid off by the company. I'm giving you this feedback by considering the income of your husband along with yours. As you expect, education is expensive in this country, but you can manage if the salary of your husband is good enough.

You are welcome. I can give you more feedback if you can mention your work location. Because the cost of living is different in each Emirates. (Especially rental expenses)
