Stuck choosing? Talk to a parent who’s been through this.
Dr. Ambika Yadav. Biology teacher, over a decade of educating higher-secondary students, Dubai parent with a child in KG1. She has sat where you are sitting and made the same call. Thirty minutes on Zoom, walking through your shortlist together.
When this helps
Three reasons parents book a call.
- You’ve narrowed to 3-4 schools and can’t decide. We go through your shortlist together. Fees, ratings, distance, the bits the brochures don’t say. By the end you have a ranked top two.
- You’re moving to Dubai and don’t know where to start. Bring your timeline, budget, and child’s year group. We come out of the call with three schools to apply to and an order to apply in.
- You’re considering switching mid-year. Should you stay or move? We look at the rating, the fees, the alternatives nearby, and whether the disruption is worth it.
What happens
Thirty structured minutes. Plus a write-up.
- 5 minQuick recap of where you are. Your shortlist, your priorities, your timeline.
- 15 minSchool by school. Fees, rating, commute, fit. We talk through what you’d actually be signing up for.
- 5 minAction plan. Which schools to apply to first. Deadlines. Backup if you’re waitlisted.

- +24 hYou get a written summary by email. Your top three, the timeline, and what to do if Plan A doesn’t come through.
Honest about it
When you don’t need this.
If you already know which school you want and you are confident in the choice, don’t book a call. Use the search, see the real cost, and apply.
If you are early in the process and just exploring, also don’t book yet. Spend twenty minutes on the search first. Many decisions clarify themselves once you have seen the actual numbers.
The call is worth it when you’ve done the homework and you’re still stuck. That’s the moment a second pair of eyes pays for itself.

About Dr. Ambika
A teacher first. Then a parent. Then this.
PhD in Biology. M.Sc. Biotechnology. Over a decade teaching higher-secondary students, the kind who are two years from a decision that defines the next decade of their lives. She knows the difference between a school that looks good on paper and a school that actually prepares a child for what comes next.
She moved to Dubai with a child in KG1 and went through the search the same way you will. Thirty browser tabs, conflicting fee schedules, a spreadsheet that lied. Dubai School Finder is what came out of that. The advisory call is the same conversation she wishes someone had offered her.
