Question Riyadh multinational school question

Hello, everyone!
I'm new to this forum and since I see that some of you are already in Riyadh I have a question. Has anyone heard anything about the Riyadh Multinational School because I've read mixed reviews? My husband is considering taking a job there and since my son has some special needs, I'd really appreciate any advice about this school, esp. from anyone with personal experience.
Also, what about the American International School?

Thank you so much everyone!

I know a couple of people invovled with the MNS in Riyadh, and as far as I know, I think it would be a good prospect if your son has special needs, as that was one of the basis as to why it was set up in the first place.

It follows the Austrailian syllabus but also can offer a UK syllabus for the older kids.

Another friend of mine had kids at the school, and he seemed quite ok with the whole set up, no real compalints.

I know people with children there who are very happy. It can be hugely expensive depending on the level of specials needs needed.

No problem, you are more than welcome, andof course, a belated welcome to the Board.

I would suggest though it would be easier if you had specific questions to ask, or specific info needed, it might be better way?

Best of luck, if you do have any questions, please feel free to ask away.

Thanks, you are so kind.
As soon as I know something more definite regarding job offer, I will send you a list with some questions. Since all the family would be moving there, there are various things to consider.
Have you ever lived in Abu Dhabi or been there? Would you prefer it to Riyadh?
