The school's fee schedule is fully ADEK-approved and fees cannot be increased without prior written approval from the Department of Education and Knowledge.
In addition to tuition, families should budget for school bus transport at AED 2,560 per year. Notably, the ADEK fee schedule shows no separate charges for books or uniforms, as these columns are listed as not applicable for this school.
