LYCEE FRANCAIS JEAN MERMOZ SOUTH

Lycée Français Jean Mermoz South offers a French curriculum education from Pre-Primary through to Grade 12 (Terminale), with tuition fees for the 2025–2026 academic year ranging from AED 39,789 for the youngest learners (PS) up to AED 68,525 for Terminale students. Notably, the KHDA-approved maximum fees are higher than what the school actually charges — for example, the approved fee for Terminale is AED 74,000, but the school applies a discount of 7.4%, bringing the effective annual fee down to AED 68,525. This pattern of discounting applies across all year groups, offering families meaningful savings relative to the KHDA-approved ceiling.

A one-time registration fee of AED 500 is payable upon submission of the enrolment application. This fee is refundable only if the school is unable to offer a place; it is non-refundable once a place has been accepted. Tuition fees do not include textbooks or individual computing equipment such as iPads, which are required from 6ème (Grade 6) onwards. Families with three or more children enrolled benefit from a 10% sibling discount on the youngest child's tuition fees.

Fees are payable in three instalments, due before the start of each term in August, December, and March. The school accepts cash, cheque, bank transfer, and wire transfer; credit and debit card payments are not accepted. Given the school's French national curriculum, accreditation by KHDA, and the consistent discounts applied below approved fee ceilings, Lycée Français Jean Mermoz South represents a competitive option for French-speaking families seeking a rigorous bilingual education in Dubai's Al Barsha South area.
