Radiant School

Radiant Indian School for Girls and Boys operates at the value end of the Sharjah private school fee spectrum, with annual fees ranging from approximately AED 3,500 to AED 7,550 as reported in the SPEA inspection data. This positions the school firmly as an affordable option within the Al Yarmouk and broader Sharjah market, making it accessible to families across a wide range of income levels - a defining characteristic of the school's community identity. For context, the lowest fees apply to KG-level students and rise progressively through the school as students advance to secondary and high school grades. The SPEA-published fee document provides the definitive breakdown, and parents are strongly advised to download the official 2025-2026 fees document directly from the school's website or the SPEA portal for the most current figures, as the school's fees page links to a PDF rather than displaying fees inline. Additional costs beyond tuition are not fully itemised in publicly available sources, but families should budget for uniforms, stationery, and any examination fees associated with CBSE board examinations in Grades 10 and 12. The school's admissions process references an Application Fee and an Admission Fee (the specific AED amount was not published on the website at the time of this review). Transport is not confirmed as school-managed. At this fee level, the value-for-money equation is straightforward: Radiant delivers a structured CBSE education with a culturally familiar environment, remedial SEN support, and a range of enrichment activities, at a cost that is a fraction of mid-range or premium Sharjah schools. The trade-off is in academic outcomes, particularly at senior level, and in the breadth of facilities and ECAs. For families prioritising affordability and cultural continuity over academic prestige, the value proposition is clear. For families with higher academic aspirations, the fee savings may not offset the limitations in exam performance.
