Life and British schools in RAK?
Hello out there!! (again) We have been looking to move for a while from our apartment in the Greens, Dubai. Very nice, and super convenient for school drop off/pick up, but boy is life expensive here. Now, my husband's employment has changed suddenly (bit of a shock but we are ok), and it looks like we will be moving to Ras Al Khaimah. I've already begun enquiring about the Ras Al Khaimah Academy (looks to me like it is the only British curriculum school there) My kids are 4 and 7, and although it isn't ideal to change schools suddenly, it looks like that's what's happening.
So, I wanted to ask does anyone have kids who go there? Do you like it? Do the kids like it?
Also, my husband has told me that property there is a LOT less expensive than Dubai. I can see how this would be the case as it costs a lot to live within the limits of any big city. But is property really THAT cheap?
I understand that life in RAK will be a lot quieter than in Dubai (this is ok for me as we really only need the pool, the beach, a play area, a little mall or shop, that is fine for me) but is there something else I'm missing?
Are there other expats about?
Thanks so much ladies!
