The New Filipino Private School

NFPS's fee structure is the single most compelling reason many Filipino families choose this school, and it deserves to be stated plainly: these are among the lowest school fees available at any private school in Sharjah. Annual tuition starts at AED 3,100 for KG1 and KG2, rising to AED 5,300 for Grade 10. For a family with two children, the combined annual tuition bill could be as low as AED 6,200 to AED 8,400 - a figure that is simply not achievable at any curriculum-equivalent international school in the UAE. The school's own mission statement references affordability explicitly: NFPS remains committed to offering affordable, relevant and quality education. The SPEA inspection report cites a fee range of AED 5,200 to AED 8,666, which appears to reflect fees inclusive of additional charges rather than base tuition alone, or may reflect a subsequent fee revision. Parents should verify the current approved fee schedule directly with the school or via the SPEA fee download. Additional costs include books, uniform, and school bus - none of which are quantified on the school's public website, so families should request a full cost breakdown at the admissions stage. Fees are payable quarterly, either by cash or debit/credit card. There is no evidence of a formal scholarship or bursary program on the school's website. The refund policy follows Ministry of Education guidelines and is published on the school's fees page. In terms of value for money, the honest assessment is this: at AED 3,100 to AED 5,300, you are paying for community, cultural continuity, and basic curriculum delivery - not for exceptional academic outcomes, premium facilities, or a broad co-curricular program. For families whose priority is cultural alignment and affordability, the value proposition is strong. For families prioritising academic outcomes or university preparation, the value equation is less clear.
