Hi Everyone - It is highly likely that we will be moving to Abu Dhabi in the next 3 months or so. We have two young children, one going into kindergarten and the other into 2nd grade. I'm looking to find out what the most highly regarded schools in the area might be and if any of them would have openings at this stage. We are moving from the US and prefer a US school system, but we are open to the British system as well. I know I need to contact the schools directly to find out if they have openings but I don't know where to start! Thanks a lot for any input.

There is nothing much you can do now as schools are closed for the summer holiday. This could be an advantage as all schools would have full waiting lists at the end of the academic year, however, places arise at the beginning of the year due to drop outs. I would advise you to start calling schools first week of new academic year (first week of September i guess). Good luck.
