I have 2 DDs. DH has just heard of a possible job offer abroad (Asia) that would be for ~3 years. If we moved, DD1 would do Y9-Y11 and GCSEs abroad, but would return for sixth form. DD2 would do Y7-Y9 abroad and would return for GCSEs. Would this be terrible?
We moved from our home country when they were 5 and 3, and they changed schools when starting Y5 and Y3, so they've already had a bit of upheaval and change in their lives, but plenty of families move more I would think. I wouldn't have them move mid-GCSEs or A Levels, but in between. Would this work out ok or are there more difficulties than I realise?
We really enjoy living in the UK, but despite DH making pretty good money (I'm disabled and thus cannot work), we cannot afford to buy a home here. We hope that going away for a few years with higher pay and lower taxes may allow us to return and live a more comfortable life.
