Fed up here. I am an EYFS leader and have been working in it for 25 years. We are completely skint here in the Uk. I have a daughter who finishes GCSE’s and a son about to start high school so would be a good time to
make the move. The idea is to go for 5-7 years
the salary and packages look good but there must be a twist somewhere!

Anyone made the move! Any positives or negatives of working in international schools?

Are your children thinking of going to uni? Keeping their home fee status is something to factor in

Completely never thought of that!
