New Affordable Private Schools

As a part of the educational strategy, the Dubai government has planned to open two new affordable schools to be run by a private sector operator under a new model for the city. The schools will be located in Mirdif and Al Barsha, and will be operational on August 29 2021. Both schools will follow the American curriculum but will focus on Arabic literacy, science and technology, the UAE’s culture and Islamic studies.

The schools will be operated by Taaleem, one of the country’s top education providers, and will be regulated by the Knowledge and Human Development Authority (KHDA), Dubai’s private education regulator. The school will be open for students of all abilities and nationalities. Currently, more than 400 families have expressed interest in seeking admission in these schools, while it can accommodate 800 children. Initially the school will be open for preschool to Grade 4.
