o all,
I have just accepted an offer from Saudi Aramco and am looking to move from London to the Dhahran camp with my family in August.
We currently have three sons attending good independent schools in London in years 9, 8 and 4 (we also have a baby daughter aged 5 weeks!), and are looking to send them to a good British school while staying with us in Dhahran, rather than boarding and being separated from their family.
The Dhahran British Grammar School seemed like a good option, however the GCSE options currently offered are a little too limited relative to the subjects our older children are currently studying, and DBGS very kindly suggested that we take a look at St. Christopher's School in Bahrain, where some of the DBGS students have gone on to study for their A levels.
The Bahraini school does look excellent, but I am concerned that getting the children to and from the school each day may be difficult.
Is there are anyone who lives in Dhahran and has (or knows of anyone who has) children studying at St. Christopher's? If so, how do the children get to and from school? Also it would be great if we could get in touch.
Thank you very much in advance for your help!
