If you are new to Dubai and looking to enroll your child/children in an educational institute, the city’s Knowledge and Human Development Authority (KHDA) has an updated list of the best schools in the city. According to the KHDA , Dubai currently has 220 private schools, offering 17 curricula to students from more than 180 different nationalities. More than three-quarters of all students in Dubai receive an education that is rated ‘Good’ or ‘Better’ by the Dubai Schools Inspection Bureau, including 76 per cent of Emirati students, noted the authority in its 2023 report.
For the first time ever, the rate of enrolment growth entered double digits in the 2023-24 academic year, registering at 12 per cent, or more than 39,000 additional students, compared to this time last year. The total number of students attending Dubai private schools is now more than 365,000. The KHDA releases an annual list of schools and their rankings based on certain metrics such as performance, STEM subjects, development and more.
