If the salary quoted to you is per month, year round, even during summer vacation, then it is a "normal" salary. Also, the hours worked should be 7am to 1pm for that salary. Generally the accomodations for teachers provided by the school are adequate, but not large, new, or flashy.
The international experience and the chance to change your pace is nice. The students, if a British based international school, are delightful, and the school will be private. Being a private school has advantages when it comes to disipline. Generally the international student is not as distracted or surly as the student in the UK or US, according to my close associate who is a teacher with many years of teaching here and elsewhere.
The disadvantage for a UK teacher is the rapid increase of living expenses. Even if your accomodations are furnished, you will find the price of food and such high. The biggest complaint now is that the pay is in Riyals, which when converted to the pound, are losing value.
