Dubai Scholars Academy

Dubai Scholars Academy is a premier international school in Jumeirah offering a dual-pathway curriculum that combines the rigour of the English National Curriculum with the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme. This unique approach allows students to benefit from the structured progression of British education in their formative years while accessing the globally recognized IB Diploma in Years 12 and 13. The school occupies an impressive purpose-built campus on Jumeirah Beach Road, featuring state-of-the-art facilities that rank among the finest in Dubai's education landscape. The Innovation Hub provides dedicated spaces for robotics, coding, and design thinking projects. A fully equipped drama studio hosts regular productions and performing arts programs. Six science laboratories, a 30,000-volume library, and smart classrooms with interactive technology support academic excellence across all disciplines. Sports and physical education benefit from a 25-meter competition swimming pool, FIFA-standard artificial turf sports field, indoor sports hall, and specialist coaching in swimming, football, athletics, tennis, and basketball. The school fields competitive teams in multiple sports through DASSA and BSME leagues. Academic outcomes are exceptional. IB Diploma students consistently achieve an average point score above the world average, with multiple students earning 40+ points (out of 45). Graduates gain admission to Russell Group universities in the UK, Ivy League and top-50 universities in the US, and leading institutions across Canada, Australia, and Europe. The school is accredited by the Council of International Schools (CIS) and the Council of British International Schools (COBIS), and holds an Outstanding rating from KHDA — the highest possible rating in Dubai's school inspection framework. The school community represents over 85 nationalities. The language program is particularly strong, offering English as the primary language of instruction, Arabic as required by the UAE curriculum, and Mandarin Chinese as an additional language option — reflecting the school's forward-looking approach to global competencies. Tuition fees range from AED 40,000 to AED 85,000 per year, placing the school in the premium tier. The school offers limited merit-based scholarships and sibling fee reductions. A dedicated admissions team supports families through the enrollment process, which typically opens 12 months before the academic year.
