Hi there,

We are moving to Dubai soon and thinking of setting up base at the Springs community. I’ll be doing the school run for my toddler and was wondering what the commute is like from the Springs to Umm Suqeim 2 area?

Also any recommendations on good schools and nurseries following the British curriculum close to the Springs?

Thank you!

Thank you Haim - I was worried about this. What about in the direction of HomeGrown Nursey in Al safa 2? Would the drive be any easier? Also what about from the Springs to Jebel Ali School ...
I'm afraid Al Safa 2 would pose the same issues when it comes to rush hour... Jebel Ali School however would be easier to get to... 20 mins or so on a good day without traffic straight down Hessa St which you can join at the end of Springs! Hope that helps :)

On a good day, it's less than 30 minutes but in peak traffic, between 45 - 60 minutes as you pass by the Mall of the Emirates exit and Al Manara exits on SZR which are a niiiiightmare during rush hour In Springs itself there's Dubai British Foundation and Dubai British School - both received great KHDA ratings this year so worth checking out... And very close to home!!
