Our Take
Fee comparisonGrade 3 tuition is within 10% of the comparable-school median.
AED 28,781 compared with a median of AED 28,257 across 33 other American schools for age 8, using KHDA 2026-27 fees. Tuition only, excluding transport, uniforms and other extras. A lower price does not establish a better fit for your child.
- Published KHDA rating: Good. Read the inspection report and ask the school what has changed since it was published.
- Confirm the actual grade, admissions availability and full written fee quote with each school.

03 · Inspection
What does the inspection tell us?
Published KHDA rating: Good.
Read the linked report for its date, strengths and improvement areas. The overall rating alone cannot establish the right fit for your child. Ask the school what has changed since the published information.
04 · Next stage
How far can my child continue here?
American · Grades: Pre primary - GRADE 12
Ask which subjects and qualifications are actually offered at the next stage. A curriculum name alone does not confirm a particular course or university destination.
05 · Admissions
What should we confirm before applying?
Ask about a place in the correct grade, assessment and waiting-list arrangements, learning support, the full fee quote and refund conditions. Published fees do not mean a place is available.
