Saudi
Aramco operates its own school system for the children
of eligible expatriate employees. The majority
of teachers are American, and more than half hold graduate
degrees. The education is superior -- in fact, when compared
to stateside counterparts, the Saudi Aramco children
have generally ranked in the top 10 percent.
Employees
from locations
other than the US and Canada have additional schooling
options
to suit their child’s home country curriculum. For
example, many European employees choose to send their children
to the British Grammar School, located a short distance
from the Saudi Aramco community in Dhahran. This international
school provides education from Pre-Reception through to
Year
11.
