New school opens next year; curriculum, fees, location

Dubai British School is opening a new campus next year, in order to satisfy the high demand at the two current campuses at Emirates Hills and Jumeirah Park.

The new school will initially cater to Years EY-6. A video shared by Taaleem, who manages the Dubai British Schools, gives a sneak peek into the architecture of the building - a sleek, modern design complete with sports fields, a swimming pool, theatre, playgrounds, labs and more.

The school is located in Al Wasl, adjacent to the canal. It will open in the academic year 2024-2025 on a 22,227.04 sqm plot.

The school fees are deemed as ‘Affordable Premium’ and will start in the range of Dh42,000 – Dh76,000 per year.

Mr. Lee Hole – Dubai British School, Jumeira (DBSJ), Founding Principal added:

“As the Founding Principal at Dubai British School, Jumeira, I feel extremely privileged and excited, about the community we are building. I have spent almost twenty years in education, teaching and leading across all key stages and across different curricula. I have benefited from the experiences I have had in educational leadership, in the UK, UAE and Cambodia, the last decade being as a Principal. The contextual, cultural and educational learning, that has been possible from working with excellent teachers and educational leaders in outstanding schools, will be invaluable as I serve the DBSJ community.

One of the most exciting aspects of leading schools is the development of a learning community. DBSJ is a place in which we embrace the inclusivity and complexities of the modern classroom and use every opportunity to enhance learning for every child in our care. At Dubai British School Jumeira we believe that every member of our community should ENJOY, ASPIRE and ACHIEVE.”
