Education and Schools in Dubai
Schooling is free for children of UAE citizens but there are a huge number of schools in Dubai catering to the various expat communities. Many follow the English school system and offer KS, GCSE and A Level curriculums, while others follow the US, Indian or UAE public school syllabus. There are some very good schools in Dubai. However, school fees have seen a sharp rise in the last three years and many expat parents are now choosing to home school their children or send them back to their home country, since they can no longer afford to educate them in the UAE. Hikes of up to 90 percent imean education in Dubai is certainly not cheap. Yet for those on good salaries or with education allowances there is no shortage of schools to choose from.
Currently the most popular choices for expat primary education are Dubai English Speaking School and Jumeirah English Speaking School, while Dubai College tops the list of secondary schools. For those intending to study at tertiary level, there are several international universities who have campuses in Dubai offering degree level studies. School fees for primary education start at around 6,000AED while high school costs begin at 16,000AED.
