About & sources
UAE School Fees helps parents choose a private school. It puts the official school register, approved fees by grade and distance search in one place, and an AI assistant answers questions with citations. It covers Dubai only for now; other emirates will be added once official data is available.
Not affiliated with KHDA or the Government of Dubai. School data comes from KHDA's published register and open data, credited below.
Data
- All 236 schools: name, curriculum, overall KHDA rating with inspection year, area, map location, phone, website and inspection report link, from KHDA's private schools register (exported 25 Oct 2026).
- Fees by grade for 229 schools: official annual tuition from KHDA's open data service (SchoolFeesByGrade), mostly for 2026-27, the year fees were frozen. Where a school runs several curricula or sections, the lowest fee for each grade is shown.
- Schools without a fee (a handful of government-linked schools) show "Fee not on file"; check with the school.
- Distances are straight lines between KHDA map points, rounded to about a kilometre. Driving distance is longer.
KHDA ratings
KHDA rates Dubai private schools on a six-point scale: Outstanding, Very Good, Good, Acceptable, Weak, Very Weak. "Not yet inspected" usually means a school is new. Ratings show the year of the inspection they come from.
Limits
Information only, not admission advice. Fees shown are KHDA-approved annual tuition. They do not include registration, re-enrolment, transport, uniforms, books, trips or exam fees, and they may change for the next academic year. Always confirm the final amount, seats and ratings with the school before applying.
