Value for Money
Kent College Dubai offers a British curriculum education from FS1 through Year 13, with annual tuition fees for the 2025–2026 academic year ranging from AED 55,243 (FS1/FS2 after KHDA-approved discount) to AED 100,256 (Years 12–13 after discount). The KHDA-approved fees are published transparently, and a standard 7.2% discount is applied to all non-Emirates/non-FlyDubai families, bringing tuition fees to competitive levels within Dubai's British school market. Corporate partners such as Emirates Airlines and FlyDubai employees benefit from a separate, more generous discount structure with flat-rate fees of AED 58,000 (FS1–Y6) or AED 86,000 (Y7–Y13).
Fees are payable in three terms, with Term 1 representing approximately 40% of the annual fee and Terms 2 and 3 each representing approximately 30%. A registration deposit of 10% of the annual tuition fee is required upon acceptance of an offer for AY 2025–2026, which is subsequently deducted from the tuition. The school also offers 0% installment payment plans through partner banks including FAB, ADIB, and ENBD, making fee management more flexible for families.
Included in the tuition are study books and materials, use of school sports, recreational, music, and theatre facilities, and most stationery. Additional costs apply for Apple devices (iPads for Years 3–13), uniform and PE kit, lunch, bus transport, external examination fees, and optional extra-curricular activities or trips. Sibling discounts, staff discounts, and merit-based scholarships (up to 50% bursary reduction from KHDA-approved fees) are also available, making Kent College an accessible option across a range of family circumstances.
