Hi there,

My husband just got offered a job in Nairobi and now the whole family have this wonderful oppurtunity to live in Kenya for a year. My biggest concern is moving with my two boys who are aged 7 and 10.

We are from the UK and they have been studying at Catholic school in London. I want to find a school for them in Nairobi which they will be able to settle into quickly. So we'd like them to start at school which follows the British national curriculum. The spiritual element of their education is also important to us, so if there are any good Christian schools in Nairobi, we'd love to hear more.

The other option, would be for them to study for the IB. I am only considering this option in case we move again with my husbands job.

Please give me your advice. Thanks in advance.

Sally
