Value for Money
Dubai Modern Education School offers two curriculum streams — US (American) Curriculum and MOE (Ministry of Education) Curriculum — each with its own fee schedule for the academic year 2025/2026. American Curriculum fees range from AED 13,487 for KG 1 and KG 2, rising progressively through the grades to AED 24,911 for Grade 12. MOE Curriculum fees are generally lower, starting at AED 15,412 for Grade 1 and reaching AED 18,740 for Grade 12, with Advanced track options available for Grades 9 through 12 at the same fee level as the standard track.
The school's fee structure is positioned in the mid-range for Dubai private schools, reflecting its Acceptable KHDA rating maintained consistently over multiple inspection cycles. Fees increase incrementally across grade bands, with notable steps at the middle and high school levels. Payment can be made by credit/debit card, cash at the school office, or bank cheque, and bank transfer is also accepted via Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank. The school requests that the family ID be quoted as a payment reference for all transfers.
No additional costs such as registration fees, transport, books, uniforms, or exam fees are explicitly listed on the school's fees page. Parents are advised to contact the Finance Office directly — headed by Mahmoud Hanbal — for any billing queries or to confirm what is included within the published tuition fees.
