    Hello Shahnaz

    Welcome to AUH.. There a few cbse schools here like ADIS(AUH indian school), Our Own,St. Joseph's, Sunrise, Leens, Wisdom, Indian Islahi, Little Flower etc. Getting admission in a prticular school is uncertain , so to be on the safer side you can apply in more than one school.

    Accommodation isnt really cheap here. Rents havent come down even after the recession. You could contact the rental agents. 1 BHK flat rent would start from around 80,000 AED/annum. I guess the rents are almost the same whether you take the flat in the city or outskirts.

    AUh is a small place and easily accessible from any part of the city. School bus will be avaibale , so not to worry about the transportaion. If you are staying in the city , grocery/ saloon/supermarket facilities available all over.Taxis are quite cheap too and few buses are also available.

    Regarding the standard of education, I havent heard of any 'good' school here! One doesnt have much of a choice but out of the whole, OOEHS is better, so I've heard.

    hi shahnazshakeel

    schoolin is the most difficult thing in here. if u think of the pathetic situation of the school and the difficulties in getting a decent accomodation within ur budget u might not even think of shifting to abudhabi.
    as mentioned. our own school is just ok. same with all cbse schools...
