Lycee Francais Jean Mermoz Branch Dubai - Al Qouz 1

Lycee Francais Jean Mermoz operates a transparent, KHDA-approved fee structure for the 2025-2026 academic year. North Campus annual tuition fees range from AED 39,789 for Petite Section (PS, age 3) to AED 68,525 for Terminale (final year of Lycee). The fee structure follows a logical progression, increasing by approximately AED 1,000-2,200 per grade level. The South Campus carries the same net annual fees as the North Campus after KHDA-approved discounts are applied, though the approved (pre-discount) fees are higher on the South Campus - parents should be aware that the South Campus fee sheet shows both an approved fee and a discounted annual fee, with the discounted figure matching the North Campus rate. For context in the Dubai private school market, LFJM sits firmly in the premium fee band - above mid-range Indian and Pakistani curriculum schools but meaningfully below the ultra-premium British and IB schools that charge AED 80,000-120,000+ annually. The average annual fee across all year groups is approximately AED 52,000-53,000, which represents reasonable value for a KHDA Very Good rated school with AEFE accreditation, Outstanding English outcomes, and purpose-built facilities. Compared to the other established French curriculum schools in Dubai, LFJM's fees are competitive. Registration fees are AED 500 per application - refundable if the school cannot offer a place, but non-refundable once a place is accepted. Textbooks and personal devices are not included in tuition fees - iPads are a compulsory requirement from 6eme (Grade 6) onwards, which adds a meaningful one-off cost for families entering secondary. Stationery is included. The school does not accept credit card payments - fees must be paid by cash, cheque, bank transfer, or wire transfer. Fees are due before the start of each trimester: August, December, and March, reflecting the three-term French academic calendar. On discounts: a 10% sibling discount applies from the third child - notably, not from the second child, which is less generous than some Dubai schools. There are no published scholarships or bursary programmes, which is consistent with the AEFE model where the French government provides some support mechanisms for qualifying families through separate channels. Parents relocating outside Dubai can obtain a refund of admission fees with documentation - a practical protection for the highly mobile expatriate families who form the school's core community.
