Hi guys
I have many question's but I'm trying to keep it brief. . Trying. . My wife & I are considering a move to Abu Dhabi. We have read countless blogs' and trawled forums til our eyes hurt and heads spin. We still haven't been put off. The ' In brief ' :
* Wife is 15 years in as primary teacher (Should be writing this to improve the Grammar ��
Top of UK pay scale & teaching points
* I'm a fully qualified and experienced swimming teacher. I teach for the ASA the leading UK body and have all extra quals. As expected with this role.
*We are both 40 with our 8yr old princess and stoic Irish terrier in tow.
*we are not financially on the run and both genuinely love teaching.
*ADEC is not the way forward for us.
Our CVs are written and ready to go. Would you recommend wife applies for job with family housing package etc. Then I apply for work from here or I apply when in Abu?
We have seen many job's for wife through agency's but are interested in applying to schools we like the sound of due to online recommendations. Does sending ad hoc CVs sound like a good idea? I realise this is becoming an essay but I'm nearly there.. Do you feel there will be much call for my qualifications and finally will we be able to potentially get good package's ( Interested in what we should hope for )
I apologise for my rambling's. I think you can see why one of us teaches in a classroom and im at the pool....
There's a Guinness on offer for best answers on our arrival ��
