Advice on schools
I’m hoping that you could help me with some advice on schools in Dubai. We are very fortunate that our son has been offered a place for FS1 this year in a number of schools. While I know that school choices are very individual and comes down to what suits the child so I’m not asking the ‘which school is better’ question. However I would appreciate your guidance on the pros and cons of not for profit school v profit school. I know that all of the money goes back into the not for profit schools but I recently spoke to a principal who mentioned that sometimes the facilities are better in profit making schools as access to money is often easier for profit schools.
Also, one of the schools for which we have an offer is a not for profit school where the places are usually filled by debenture holders. We don’t have a debenture. For those of you with children in schools that have corporate debentures (both debenture holders and those that don’t have debentures), do you find that there is somewhat of a divide between debenture holders and non-debenture holders eg all of the class mates live around the same area and therefore if you aren’t in that area, you could be a bit of an outsider for play dates and meet ups outside of school?
