Hi all, there is a possibility of me taking up a 5/6 month secondment to Brussels. We have 1 DD who is 7 years old and on DS who is 3.
The job would be based in the EU district but there would be no financial support for international schools. I would want the family to go over and therefore the main issue would be schooling for the 7 year old DD.
My DD is bi-lingual (spanish/english) and so my thinking is a french speaking school would be the best option. Has anyone had experience of a family move to Brussels for such a short period and any adaptability issues for school age kids.
I see the secondment as an interesting work related opportunity as well as an opportunity for the family to experience life abroad but want to make sure any adaptability issues are minimized.
Thanks for any help.
