When we asked about the schools in Dubai, they said...

"Stay away. If you wants the American system apply to the American School of Dubai which has been in existence for the last 40 years and is a non-profit school. If you want international system then apply to the Emirates International School which has the IB program and has been tried and tested for many years," wrote an expat with kids at Dubai American Academy in Dubai.
