Wales International School

Wales International School sits firmly in the mid-range fee bracket for Abu Dhabi private schools, with school fees 2026 running from AED 24,160 for Preschool and KG1 through to AED 35,980 for Grade 12. This fee structure, approved by ADEK, represents a meaningful price advantage over premium British curriculum schools in Abu Dhabi, many of which charge AED 50,000-90,000+ for comparable year groups. The school's own website confirms that payment is made via Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank (ADIB), with the account details provided directly. Board examination fees (IGCSE and A-Level) are charged separately in line with ADEK regulations, and a separate Board Examination Fee Structure document is available on the school website.

Additional costs include an annual bus fee of AED 4,972 and uniform costs ranging from AED 350 (Preschool/KG1) to AED 750 (Grades 4-12). Notably, the school's fee page and the ADEK TAMM data show no separate book or material charge - books and learning materials appear to be included in tuition fees, which represents genuine value. No public information is available regarding sibling discounts, scholarships, or bursary programmes, and the school does not publish a formal instalment payment schedule on its website; parents are advised to contact the finance department directly. For families in Al Shamkhah and surrounding communities, the combination of a purpose-built campus, BSO accreditation, COBIS membership, and a full British curriculum pathway to A-Level at this price point represents strong value for money - provided parents accept the current Good (rather than Outstanding or Very Good) ADEK rating and the academic pressures that come with a rapidly growing school.
