Admissions

The school considers previous results, age and readiness assessment. CAT4 is listed from Year 3, with different assessment arrangements for younger children. The admissions page describes assessment options for families outside the UAE. EAL language support is available for Year 1–11 as determined by the school.

Questions for admissions

  • How will the transition into IB from our current curriculum work?
  • Will EAL be needed, and how will progress be assessed?
  • Which subjects are available for DP or CP, and do they support the intended university pathway?
