In context
It has not yet completed a full KHDA inspection cycle — no rating is not a bad rating, but there is no inspection evidence yet either.
These comparisons are computed from the verified data in this register, not editorial opinion.
What the inspectors said
This school has not yet been inspected by KHDA, so there is no rating and no inspection findings to report. What follows is verified public record about the school itself — what it has committed to, and what remains unproven — kept clearly separate from anything a regulator has judged.
What is known and committed:
- Opening August 2026 in Al Quoz 1, with founding-family fees starting from around AED 42,700 against standard rates of roughly AED 61,000 to AED 85,000 — a substantial founding discount worth quantifying against the years you would hold it.
- One of seven schools confirmed for Dubai’s 2026–27 opening cohort, the deepest new-school pipeline the emirate has seen.
What is not yet proven:
- No KHDA rating and no inspection findings — nothing about this school has been independently assessed.
- Opening is subject to final KHDA approvals: confirm the school is licensed and open before committing a deposit.
- Ask what the founding fee discount applies to and for how long, in writing — founding rates that revert sharply after a year or two change the real cost of a decade of schooling.
Inclusion (students of determination): No KHDA rating — the school opens in August 2026 and a first full inspection normally follows only in the third year of operation. What is verifiable is the structure being built: the school has advertised for a Special Educational Needs Coordinator and Inclusion Support Teacher reporting to a Head of Inclusion, with responsibility for the strategic development of SEN policy, day-to-day operation of that policy, coordination of provision for individual pupils, and professional guidance to colleagues, parents and outside agencies. A named Head of Inclusion above a SENCO above inclusion support teachers is a proper three-tier structure rather than a single appointment, and it is being recruited before opening. Judge it as intent, not outcome. See the special educational needs guide for the questions to ask on a visit.
Inspector summaries are being added school by school as each report is read — 169 of 169 so far, dated per cycle, never invented. A school without a summary yet is unread, not unjudged.
