Admissions
My child was born in Jan 2010 and currently I am in Pakistan. My husband has finalized his recruitment procedure with oil company in Abu Dhabi and his expected date of joining to new employer will be around 15 March 2015. Child earliest presence is not possible before 20 April 2015.
Please help me regarding which school will be welcoming admission in that particular frame of time.
I want to admit her in grade 1.
Dear Qisub,
You will need to contact the schools individually to find out whether they will have available places in April. You do not mention which curriculum you are seeking, but as you probably know, Indian and Pakistani schools commence their new school year in April, so this would tie in with the time of your move. It may be, though, that due to the lack of school places in Abu Dhabi currently, that you will need to consider British curriculum also. You can find out details of primary schools in Abu Dhabi by searching on Whichschooladvisor.com and also on the ADEC website –https://www.adec.ac.ae/en/Education/KeyInitiatives/Pages/Irtiqaa-Reports.aspx. Please bear in mind that you will also need to have processed your daughter’s residence visa and Emirates ID card before schools will allow your daughter to commence classes.
Good luck with your move.
