Al Maaref Private School

Al Maaref Private School (Al Maaref American School) offers a comprehensive fee structure for the 2025–2026 academic year, covering students from KG1 through Grade 12. Annual tuition fees (KHDA-regulated) range from AED 12,906 for KG students up to AED 37,134 for Grade 12, placing the school in the mid-range bracket for American curriculum schools in Dubai. The total fees payable — which include tuition, books, uniform, assessments, LMS access, and clinic services — range from approximately AED 14,144 for KG1 to AED 39,007 for Grade 12.

The all-inclusive nature of the fee structure means parents benefit from transparency, with costs for books, uniforms, assessments, a Learning Management System (LMS), and clinic access all itemised and bundled into the total fee. Discounts are applied to tuition fees for Grades 9 through 12, ranging from AED 500 (Grade 9) to AED 4,000 (Grade 12), reflecting the school's effort to support families as students progress into higher grades. An additional 5% sibling discount on tuition is available for each additional child enrolled, applied to the lowest grade.

Payment is structured across three instalments: 40% due by 25th August, 30% by 7th December, and 30% by 7th March. New students are required to pay a non-refundable AED 500 admission fee and a 10% deposit of annual tuition upon receiving an offer, while returning families pay a 5% deposit (or AED 500, whichever is higher) at re-registration. Books, uniform, and other ancillary fees are payable by cash or with the first instalment.
