Political climate in Bahrain

Hi guys and gals!

I've just recently accepted an offer to work in a school in Bahrain, but my main concern is the current political unrest. I try not to over react to anything shown on CNN or Al Jazeera, but with the Saudi military coming in, it seems to be getting worse. The Foreign Office has advised British citizens against ALL travel to Bahrain.

What I'm most afraid of is that I won't have a job come September and I may have burned my bridges by then.

Does anyone know anyone out there and how they're getting on?
What would you all recommend me to do?

Thank you in advance![/b]

Re: Best places or types of school to make/save money?

[quote="pikefish"][quote="sidling"]I'm interested in some advice about the best places or schools to make and save money. Middle or High School specifically....any feedback will be appreciated. Anywhere in the world.

I'm looking to make the move abroad next summer and would like to easily put away £1500 a month and live comfortably.

Thanks for your time.[/quote]

You will want to target Asia and the Middle East. However, if you want to move summer 2011 you need to get started yesterday. I teach at a fairly desirable school in SE Asia. We have already filled half our vacancies for next year and the job fairs have not even started yet.[/quote]


Any particular countries I should be looking for? I take it that there are some regional differences in pay. Which schools are regarded as desirable to work for in SE Asia and Middle East?
