Re:school nurse in kuwait - 2009/02/15 06:51

Hi, thanks for posting here. I am actually a school nurse myself at an international school here (Kuwait English School) in the Prep Department. I get KD350 at the moment, the management said I'll get KD400 this month (fingers crossed!) I don't have free accommodation but it's okay because my husband pays for our apartment. I don't wear (or refused to wear a uniform!) and I don't have an annual ticket because I'm hired locally. I have 30% discount for my son's school fees though.

KD200 is I think a bit low but then again you have free accommodation (don't know what's it's like). Is an annual ticket included in your contract? I think it should be.

About the yearly increment, it could be possible but I get a bit skeptical when they give promises here (you ask all expats here and they'll tell you the same thing).

The nice thing about working as a school nurse is you don't have night shifts. I'm handling about 400 children ages 3-5 mostly small cuts and bruises. Then you have the school holidays. Eid Holiday, winter holiday, spring holiday and 2 mos summer holiday.

I don't think you'll be allowed to get a part time job but some people still do it.

Hope this will help you weigh the pros and cons.
