I've been working at al-rowad school for 9 years. Ive been in Riyadh for almost 11 years. I am from the U.S. If you are looking for a good ISLAMIC, International School, go for Al-Rowad.. Not all schools are perfect in this country but Mashalla Al-Rowad International school really trys its best in everything especially they try to implement Islam in our school.
By the way, i also have my kids in the school. And Alhamdulila they are happy and I am happy as well. I also love working at Rowad because i feel we are all one good muslim family.
As Salamu Alaikum I would like to make hijra to Saudi Arabia with My family. However I dont posses any Degree only Tesol,tefl certicates. Does anyone know of any places that hire without degrees?
I am thinking of applying to Rowad for a job. I have a degree in Business Admin - do they even teach those at the high school level. Plus, how is the environment for teachers and the work load. Someone I knew used to work at Manarat Al Riyadh - and they cram you with unnecessary work. I was wondering if its like that there. Thanks. Any input would be highly appreciated.

hello my name is Mohammed dreza, I graduated from alrowad in 2000. I know am almost finished with my batchelors degree in biology, I work for a vitamin manufacturing company. I believe alrowad is an excellent school. If mr fawzy is still working there, have your kids in his class.
I am an American and I teach at Al-Rowad Int'l School Girls' Section. The principal is hard working and a fair lady. I can only imagine that the negative poster experienced sour grapes, possibly due to their poor command of the English Language. The primary section is the best place in Riyadh to put your children. The school motto is Fun with Learning. I give my thumbs up to Al-Rowad.
How much is the tuition for primary section?
Do girls and boys goes to a separate schools?
My kids do not know Arabic? is this will be a problem for grade 1 and 4?
Thanks,
Yasser

Hi i am a girl 14 years old me and my parents will move to Riyadh soon ,and we are looking for a good school there,we need some info about alghad or AL rowad school.
I am a qualified teacher with over 5 years experience specialising in Maths for KS2. Was considering moving to Saudi with family. I need more info on Manarat in Riyadh and whether it would be the correct move for me.
Any info then please help
I was a student at alrowad for about 7 years.its a pretty good school to tell you the truth.everyone is friendly.there are some amazing teachers there.might be alittle pricy but it is totally worth it.my younger brother whos in grade 12 is Studying there.theres a wide mix of nationalitys.For More Info Dont hesatate to ask!
Guys, if you're thinking of moving to KSA just remember that it's saudi first full stop. it is so blatant they will even advertise this way. they believe they are superior and as for islaam, it's a cultural thaing.
Their sums are dogdy and they will hold your money in order for you to be controlled. practice how to beg before you go out there, it will come in handy. SELF INFLICTED SLAVERY.
I can't agree more with you earthling, this year teachers ran from saudi arabia(al rowad) It's a shame the brothers who are over there don't warn and prepare anyone. they themselves are probably alright because they never had much going on in Europe in the first place and so turned to KSA, there, all they do is go Mcdonalds.ironic!! They also get to become lecturers with basic qualifications like celta or the like and i think the status gets to their head. generally wahabbis finding somewhere they call home, nodding their head to a shake they don't even understand. good or bad, how can you tell, well theres their attitude and character. APPALLING
