Private School/College rates

TheEdge
By TheEdge

Hi

I am negotiating with a Dubai company to work in the Doha area. If I accept the conditions, I will live in to Doha for a few months, then if all is ok, my family will be with me.

So i have two children, one with 8 years old, and another with 2 years old.

The company pays about QR 20/25,000 year per child.

My question is, is this ok for a good private School/College? I do not know the rates from the private School/College, so if any one can help this.

Thank You

After a huge struggle I found a nursery for my boy - I start work at 8 in the morning and only knocks off at 6 in the evening - there is only 3 nurseries in the whole of Doha that stays open after 3 in the afternoon, most of them close at 1pm. So good luck - and a good nursery full day will cost you around QR27000 per annum. ...

Count on over 50k/year for the American School and Compass. Schools are expensive over here - unless you are prepared to dig deep then I'm not sure I'd come. :(

For your younger daughter. . .a five-day slot in a very good nursery will run you ~12,000 for the year, not including summer. Two and three day slots are not much less.

Excuse me, has anyone mentioned that it is almost impossible to get onto the WAITING LIST for many of the better schools in Qatar, never mind an actual school place for your child?
