What are the schools in Sharjah like?
When we asked about the schools in Sharjah, they said...
"As a happy parent of a happy child who will be commencing her 3rd year at VES in September, in my opinion there is really little advice that one parent can give to another regarding the schooling of that person's child. It depends on the individual requirements of the parent whether each or any particular school ticks all the right boxes to ultimately make the right decision as to where to place your child. To ensure this, if you obtain an interview or attend an open day, don't be afraid to ask questions, the staff are open, honest, friendly and professional," wrote an expat with kids at Victoria English School in Sharjah.
"Have a look around and compare others in the area. There are not many that can compare. This school was set up in 1974 and has good sized classes. Near enough to Dubai and easy to get to," commented one expat when asked about Sharjah English School in Sharjah.
