relocating to Qatar - schools
Hello All,
Like many posts I have read, I have a potential offer for a position in Qatar am in making this post I trying to do somework beforehand before taking the big next step.
The first question my wife has asked me to look at is schools. We have two kids ( 9 years and 11 years ) and both attend a Montessori School in Australia. We had heard there is Montessori primary school in Qatar. Does anyone know if this is true and if so, how we might find some contact information for them.
In comparing schools there seemed to be a number of posts expression caution. I was hoping those who have good experiences with primary education make a post/reply. It might also be helpful to have an idea of costs of education. There is a "schooling allowance" that is part of the salary package but at this stage I do not know the amount. Having a good idea at what the cost of education is in Qatar would be help me negotiate a better package.
Cheers in advance.
Hi and thanks for you response. It was appreciated.
There is a Montessori school, although only at primary level.

For nursery they charge about 3,500 per term, but I believe this increases as the children get older.
