Khalifah Al Hamza American Private School

KHAS operates a transparent and accessible fee structure that positions it firmly in the value tier of Sharjah private schools. The 2025-26 fee schedule shows a standard 20% discount applied to all published tuition fees, with the post-discount tuition ranging from AED 15,480 for Pre-KG up to AED 35,400 for Grade 9. Books fees are charged separately, ranging from AED 800 at Pre-KG level to AED 2,500 at Grade 9, bringing the all-in annual cost (tuition after discount plus books) to between AED 16,280 and AED 37,900. Fees are paid in three installments: the first on 1 September, the second on 1 December, and the third on 1 March, with a 40/30/30 split applied to the discounted tuition fee. This structure is manageable for most families and avoids the large upfront lump sums required by some higher-fee schools. Transportation is an additional cost, ranging from AED 5,500 to AED 6,500 per year depending on route - a significant but necessary expense for families in the dispersed communities served by the school. Compared to urban Sharjah American curriculum schools, which can charge AED 40,000 to AED 80,000 or more per year, KHAS represents compelling value - particularly for the Phase 1 and Phase 2 year groups where SPEA-rated achievement is good. The value proposition weakens slightly at Phase 3, where attainment is more variable, but even at Grade 9 the all-in cost of under AED 38,000 is difficult to match elsewhere. There is no published information on sibling discounts, scholarships, or bursary programmes beyond the standard 20% tuition discount already applied. Parents seeking financial assistance should contact the school directly. No registration fee amount was published on the school website at the time of this review.
