Al Durrah International School

Al Durrah International School's fee structure places it in the accessible mid-range for American curriculum schools in Sharjah. The SPEA-published fee range of AED 17,000 to AED 29,000 per annum represents a significant value proposition for a NEASC-accredited school offering AP examinations and a full KG1 to Grade 12 pathway. For context, many American curriculum schools in Dubai or in more central Sharjah locations charge considerably more for comparable or lower-rated provision. The school's fees page on its official website references a fees table image for the 2025-2026 academic year, though the precise per-year-group breakdown by individual grade is not published in text format on the admissions page. The SPEA-published range of AED 17,000 to AED 29,000 is the verified data point available. Parents should contact the admissions office directly to confirm the exact fee for their child's specific grade before enrolling, as fees typically increase incrementally from KG through to Grade 12. Additional costs to factor in include the school uniform, which is compulsory and available through the school. Transportation is offered across Sharjah, Ajman, and Dubai at an additional cost coordinated through the transport supervisor. AP examination fees, where applicable in Grades 11 and 12, are a further variable cost. The school does not publish explicit information about registration fees, sibling discounts, or scholarship programs on its public-facing website, and families should enquire directly with the admissions office for this detail. On a value-for-money basis, Al Durrah represents a genuinely competitive option in the Sharjah American curriculum market. NEASC accreditation, a Good SPEA rating with an upward trajectory, AP and SAT examination pathways, and a 1:13 teacher-to-student ratio at this price point is a combination that is difficult to replicate elsewhere in the emirate at the same cost. Families who prioritise accreditation credentials and improving academic outcomes over premium facilities will find this school a strong candidate.
