Many thanks Blue Cat, will definitely add Regent’s to the list.

Mrs. checked their website and it looks good. Just a little confused to see an ‘Acceptable’ rating on the KHDA website.

Blue Cat

apparently the school has had some problems, but I can say hand on heart we have never experienced any of them. My daughter loves the school and all the teachers she has had in the past three years. We had a new Head Mistress join in September, she is lovely, pop in for a show around and get a feel for the place.

You should take the KHDA ratings (and anything else they say) with a pinch of salt. A school is marked down considerably if their teaching of Arabic is not top notch, but few expat parents are that concerned about that.

Blue Cat

had to fill in survey about the school last week, was going to post about and forget, first three questions related to Arabic and Arabic Studies

We always give our school negative ratings - they can't increase fees unless they get a 'good' or 'outstanding'

Blue Cat

they can't increase them this year anyway

I can help answering any inquiries regarding AlAin city cause I know how difficult is it to move to a new place.

Thanks Blue Cat, much relieved. We will certainly arrange a visit.

Thanks Meow. Although, another language would be an asset but like most expats we are not concerned about this at present for our 3yr old.
