Moving to Bahrain - schools

Hey helena

Yeah these are the best schools u need to wait til the school re opens or else i wil contact few and let you know

Thank you

HI,

How old are your children?  The 2 main British Curriculum schools which take children all the way through until they are 18 are British School of Bahrain ( admissions@thebsbh.com, http://www.britishschoolbahrain.com/enr … plication/) and St Christophers (admissions.school@st-chris.net).  There is also Nadeen school (I think that's the right name) which can take children up to the end of primary.  I think that the new Capital school also follows the British Curriculum but I have no real knowledge of it!

In all cases you do need to contact them to get on waiting lists etc.  You might find it worth emailing since they may work limited hours rather than closing for the holidays.  I know that administration stays open at BSB throughout the summer (other than for Eid - so I would assume that there will be no-one available until 26th July!).

We applied to both The British School of Bahrain and St Christophers, my son (6) started at The British School of Bahrain in April where he is very happy.

Hope this helps

The admin offices are open during the hols but there is no way for you to take the school tests as they are usually sent to your head teacher in your current country. Admin are open around 8 - 12pm Sun - Thu.

Making a move overseas needs to be planned well in advance. Complete the online application forms or email both schools to see if they have vacancies. Other option is your husband moves here and you follow after Christmas and join the January term.

What about the Capital School ? Any reviews about that ? I logged on to their website and they have a number of teachers who used to be at the British School.
