HIIII Im soooo happy to have come across your post. fufff! (phew-sheep style )))

firstly as I was browsing other expat forums I heard alot about your school and teachers seeem to be verrrrry happy. THe school respects and supports the teacher which is not the case compared to my and my mothers experience.  So goodluck with that and i hope you ll like it there.


I m happy about your post because I was wondering about where Ill be accomodated. I have an interview as well and I had heard in that past that it was difficult for females to be on their own since they practically placed them on school campus where they were not allowed to go out at all. They were only taken to the supermarket once a week to get their stuff and thats about it. So knowing you ll be in a compound IS GREAAAATTT!!! IM SOO EXCITED NOW about my interview you know I was wondering if I should cancel the interview...YAY GOD BLESS YOU HON. see u around

did they ask you about the methodologies in your interview?

Hi BAA,

So have you had your interview or is it still to occur?

Either way all the best and hope things ork out well for you, and maybe see you in Jeddah...

it will be tomorrow..its wierd not knowing what to expect about the accomodation. When I had decided about UAE I wasnt worried this much. But as you know the lifestyle of KSA is quiet different and what makes it worse is that each company, establishment offers different things. I rechecked the post it doesnt say anything about accomodating it says that they will give allowances for that.. So its ok when they are a couple but what about a female alone u know... I wouldnt want to pass on this opportunity but I think I might stick to what Im in for now...It will be too bad if they wont offer accomodation in a compound...sigh sigh sigh...Ill just have to wait and see.

Hi BAA

Is your interview with JSK?  If so, which post are they interviewing you for?  The accommodation is mentioned on their website, so you don't need to worry. I'd check out the website if I were you. I had a good interview but as they need me to start in September.  I didn't realise this would be the case and I have to give a term's notice in my current job.

1967tazz - did you see an advert in TES earlier this year?

oh no no its for another place..sorry for the confusion ur not the first though

So when are you starting at JKS Treelouep? Or have you turned it down?

Sorry, I went to the school, and it was the worst experience of my professional life. Along with others I have left. Reasons, lack of, discipline, leadership, direction etc etc, read the ISR site to get a feeling of what many other teachers say...
