Value for Money

Horizon International School offers a British curriculum education from FS1 through Year 13, with tuition fees for the 2025–26 academic year ranging from AED 38,832 for Early Years to AED 73,124 for Post-16 (Years 12–13). The fee structure is divided into three terms, with Term 1 accounting for approximately 40% of annual tuition and Terms 2 and 3 each accounting for approximately 30%. Fees are charged separately for books, ranging from AED 350 (FS1) to AED 1,300 (Years 10–13), bringing total fees inclusive of books to between AED 39,182 and AED 74,424 per year.

The school's fees reflect its investment in UK-trained teaching staff, premium facilities, and a diverse extracurricular programme. Tuition fees do not include school lunches, transportation, or educational trips, and some extracurricular activities with external providers may incur additional charges. A non-refundable deposit of 10% of annual tuition is required for new pupils upon acceptance, while returning pupils pay a 5% deposit — both of which are deducted from annual tuition fees in line with KHDA regulations.

An application fee of AED 500 (AED 525 inclusive of VAT) is required per application and is not deductible from tuition fees. Parents may pay tuition in full at the start of the academic year or in three instalments: 40% in August, 30% in December, and 30% in March. The school publishes KHDA-approved Fees Fact Sheets for each year group, ensuring full transparency in line with regulatory requirements.
