Well, I was employed by Kingdom Schools for a couple years. They have their issues like any other Saudi organization. Management is not efficient and often acts after problems get too big. The group that came in and gave hope to many teachers for improvements, GEMs, turned out not so successful. Mostly talk, more wasted hours, and not accomplishing much. The salaries range from 6,000 - 15,000 SR depending on your nationality and experience. Housing is around 2,200 or so a month now. And transportation is 500-1000 SR a month. The students are primarily from well-to-do families and the royal family. They tend to be less mature and are able to get-away with more. The administration will look the other way and not support the teacher if there is an issue with "important" students. Most teachers there take bribes from students for improved grades, answers to exams, and so on.

I am an expat. AVOID THIS SCHOOL AT ALL COSTS. The salary may be attractive anywhere from 15-19000 but they will end up using you to max and giving you many, many grades to teach. The work conditions are horrendous. I have never seen anything like it. The predominantly Saudi children that attend are immature, rude, disrespectful, cannot take any authority and constantly answer back to the teacher. I spend 80% of my time on trying to manage and settle children down and only 25% on a good day teaching. They spend more time asking questions than they do doing the work and try and push you to see how much they can get away with.

Do the salaries mentioned here include the base salary or are they inclusive of the housing allowance and transportation
