Hello. Does anyone know where i can find a tutor for my son in AD? I know it is hard to secure seats for international school there, was thinking of sending him to Brighton College. We will be moving in March 2018. we would love for him to start school just as soon as we arrived so he will not miss anything. He will be 5 in 2018 and starting Year 1. So, home school first then apply for Brighton. would love any suggestions. Thanks Amalina

I am a little confused. Are you already living in Abu Dhabi? Or are you talking about homeschooling your son in your home country?
I would advise you to speak with the person in charge of admissions at the school to see where you stand in regards to your husbands visa situation. I think the fact that you are starting the application process 2/3 years in advance will act in your favour.
Let me know what the school have said as well.
