Al Dhia Scientific Private School - branch Al Ghubaiba

Al Dhia Scientific Private School sits at the budget end of Sharjah's private school fees spectrum, with annual tuition ranging from AED 4,900 to AED 11,900 as published in the SPEA inspection report. This places the school among the most affordable private MoE-curriculum options in Sharjah, making it accessible to working and middle-income families who want a private Arabic-medium education without the financial burden of mid-tier or premium schools. For context, the average private school fee in Sharjah sits considerably higher, and even comparable MoE schools in other areas can charge significantly more. The SPEA official profile confirms that a full fee schedule is available for download directly from the SPEA website, covering all year groups from KG1 to Grade 9. The fee range cited in the 2023 inspection report (AED 4,900 to AED 11,900) represents the spread across the full year group range - with KG levels at the lower end and upper secondary grades at the higher end. Specific per-year-group fees beyond this range were not individually itemised in the available source material from the school's own website (which was inaccessible during research) or the inspection report summary. For families weighing value for money, the honest assessment is this: at these fee levels, parents should not expect premium facilities, low teacher turnover, or outstanding academic results. What the school does offer at this price point is a regulated MoE environment, a caring pastoral culture, a principal-led improvement journey, and a broad enough calendar of events and clubs to support a well-rounded school experience. Compared to peer schools in the AED 5,000 to AED 12,000 band in Sharjah education, Al Dhia is a reasonable choice - particularly for Arabic-speaking families who prioritise Islamic values and UAE cultural identity in the school environment.
