Value for Money
Oxford School offers a UK curriculum from FS1 through Year 13, with tuition fees for the 2024–2025 academic year ranging from AED 12,695 for Foundation Stage to AED 20,128 for Years 11–13 (as listed on the KHDA portal, inclusive of mandatory annual fees). The school's fee structure is split into three terms for FS1 to Year 10, and two installments for Years 11, 12, and 13. Mandatory annual fees — covering Activity, Computer Lab, Medical, and E-Learning charges — are bundled into the first term payment, making the Term 1 installment higher than subsequent terms.
In addition to tuition, families should budget for optional fees such as Skill Development Programme (Science) for Years 10–12 and Enrichment Programme (Computer) for Years 12–13, as well as separate IGCSE/GCE board examination fees for Years 11–13. Books and uniforms are purchased separately. Transport is available through a third-party provider at costs that vary by area of residence. The application fee of AED 525 and the admission confirmation fee (10% of annual tuition) are non-refundable for new students.
Oxford School provides several avenues for fee relief, including sibling discounts of 15% for the first sibling and 20% for subsequent siblings on annual tuition, a 2.5% early payment discount for full upfront payment before the due date, and academic scholarships for high-achieving IGCSE and GCE students. These options, combined with the school's affordable fee positioning relative to other UK-curriculum schools in Dubai, make Oxford School a competitive choice for families seeking quality British education at accessible price points.
