Dubai: Student registrations continue even as new academic year begins

Private schools in Dubai are witnessing ongoing student registrations for the upcoming academic year, with the registration process set to continue for some time at certain schools.

Many school authorities revealed that that the initial day of classes witnessed a consistent influx of registrations and payments of tuition fees, with fewer new enrolments seen later in the year.

Dubai’s private schools currently offer a total of 17 curricula representing diverse countries, languages, and educational methodologies, reflecting Dubai's position as an appealing place to reside, promising a high quality of life.

Dawn Rennie, Regional Head of Admissions, International Schools Partnership – Middle East said, “All ISP schools in the UAE are still welcoming families to enrol. We have limited availability in some year groups at some schools, as we have opened additional classes to accommodate the increased demand. Our admissions teams are supporting each family through the process quickly and as seamlessly as possible. We are seeing increased movement from families new to the UAE, as well as those that are not happy at their current school.”

She added, “We welcome families all year around and pride ourselves in the induction process that our teams carry out regardless of when in the school year it
