Growing up in Dubai is absolutely wonderful, but does it make sending your child out into the big wide world a little bit harder? Absolutely! We’re delighted to be speaking to the experts from Hartland International School on Tuesday 29th April from 8am – 11am at Tania’s Teahouse, Dubai Hills Investment Park on how to prepare your children for life after school, whether that’s the traditional route of higher education, or something a little different!

We’d love you to join us at this exclusive and complimentary breakfast morning hosted by the Senior Leadership Team from Hartland to discuss the pathways for our children beyond school. Navigating university admissions and career choices has never been more complex. With a rapidly evolving job market, shifting university requirements, and an increasing number of pathways beyond traditional degrees, parents often struggle to find the best guidance for their children.

This breakfast offers parents the opportunity to hear directly from Hartland’s Academic Team, Mr Paul Ryan, Mr Gareth Brown, and Ms Mary Sheedy, who will break down the complexities of university applications, career options, and alternative routes, helping parents understand the critical decisions their children will face. This session will provide clarity in a landscape that can feel overwhelming, ensuring you are equipped to support your child’s next steps with confidence.

Thanks to the wonderful team from Hartland, breakfast is complimentary at the event and Tania’s Teahouse does this meal well! Enjoy bottomless tea or coffee (we need it right?), plus sharing tea platters including Mozzarella & Tomato, Beetroot Hummus, Avocado Hash, Chicken, Truffle & Cream Cheese, Smoked Salmon, Stuffed Croissants, Chocolate Profiteroles & assorted Mini Tarts.

There is free valet parking for 3 hours for those attending the event. To join us, please email events@britishmums.com or WhatsApp 058 560 4862 with your name, contact number and email address. You’re also very welcome to bring your child along too! We look forward to seeing you there. Xxx
