What the inspectors said
Paraphrased from the last full DSIB inspection (2023–24 cycle) and its published record — read the complete report on the official KHDA directory.
Strengths the inspectors named:
- Very Good in 2023–24, held after the step up in 2022–23 that followed seven consecutive years at Good — a slow, earned climb rather than a jump.
- In English, mathematics and science, attainment and progress reached at least Very Good in all phases, with learning skills lifted to Very Good across the school.
- One of a small handful of Dubai schools accredited to run all four International Baccalaureate programmes, with Council of International Schools accreditation alongside.
- The school exceeded its PISA targets in reading, mathematics and science, with GL assessment performance at least very good in mathematics and science.
- Mature student behaviour and strong parental engagement consistently named.
What they asked the school to improve:
- Arabic and Islamic Education remain the school’s stated improvement area — the familiar ceiling in this market.
- Consistency of teaching quality is the recurring concern parents raise; ask how it is monitored between phases.
- Fees run from roughly AED 33,700 to AED 89,000 — a wide spread, so check the exact year-group figure rather than the headline range.
Inclusion (students of determination): Very Good — KHDA praised the school’s inclusive education practices alongside student wellbeing, with around 117 to 176 students of determination reported across recent years and tailored support in place, on a ratio of roughly 1:13 to 1:14 with 106 teachers and 35 teaching assistants. Inspectors’ development points are precise and belong on any visit list: ensure all teachers use assessment information to deliver challenging lessons meeting the needs of every ability group including students of determination, and enhance leadership capacity to adjust to the school’s changing demographics. See the special educational needs guide for the questions to ask on a visit.
