Dubai Schools Project

His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Chairman of the Executive Council, announced the Dubai Schools project in March 2021. Two schools were launched in September 2021 in Mirdif and Al Barsha, with active plans to add more schools in the future.

The project aims to build schools adopted by the Government of Dubai and run by distinguished operators in the private education sector in accordance with the best international standards. The Dubai Schools Project will ensure that Emirati students and other nationalities receive modern education at an affordable cost through partnerships between the public and private sectors. The Dubai Schools Project supports the achievement of the emirate’s strategic direction of providing distinguished educational services and establishing modern schools according to international standards.

The Dubai Schools Project also contributes to improving the exchange of knowledge and experiences between the public and private sectors to achieve the Dubai Government's strategy to ensure that every Emirati student receives a high-quality education to gain the appropriate skills for a knowledge-based and competitive future economy.

The schools operating under the program’s umbrella offer international curriculum that are administered and taught in English, while ensuring excellence in the teaching of Arabic language, science and Islamic studies, while still promoting and emphasizing the uniqueness of our authentic Emirati culture and values.

The Knowledge Fund Establishment provides the necessary infrastructure for the project through the provision of distinguished educational assets, in addition to financing scholarships for Emirati students in accordance with the regulations and policies governing this project.
