In the UAE, you pay for your kids education from day one to the end. There’s no free ride, unless you’re a local. I’m not sure how many other countries are like

I’d say most countries provide free education to their residents. But, not all.
- lnsru 1y agoGot few job offers from there. All included healthcare and school fees up to three kids. I don’t think, that outsiders go to that part of the world just for schools. So at the end of the day it doesn’t really matter if school is free or paid by employer.
- yardstick 1y agoYes agree a lot do include education. But, not all the jobs there come with such perks.
- anovikov 1y agoFor CITIZENS, all of them do. Naturally in UAE there are few citizens. I have no idea why temporary, non immigrant foreigners should be entitled to free anything. There is no naturalization in UAE, you can't ever get citizenship regardless of years of residence or being born in the country - only way to it is direct male line from 1915 (something i think more countries should practice). So why fund someone who's outsider and who, will, and his descendants, always remain outsiders on temporary visas?
- yardstick 1y agoYeah your original post didn’t state citizens. It’s common for residents to receive free primary education for their children in most countries. Eg UK, AU, NZ, Canada all do. Work visa or permanent resident visa.
