The original posting was about Arabic for the children of expat parents, not for children who already speak Arabic.
There have been a number of postings about the horrors of Choueifat and I do not think that the children of English-speaking expats would be happy at that school.
In many ways it is a pity that in the majority of schools that are supposed to follow the English National Curriculum, the emphasis is placed upon French or Spanish as a "Modern Foreign Language". If your child happens to be going to a school in the Middle East, my feeling is that a more felexible and pro-active approach to Arabic would be helpful.
