What are the schools in UAE like?

"Don't! The teachers (not all, but quite a few) are rude and they they are basically ruled over by the Head and the others in top positions. Gosh, that's a rude lot. I you want a good school, try DESS, JESS or Jebel Ali. The American Scools are better as well. It was a huge mistake we made putting our child in when we arrived from the UK. What a poor waste of the formative years," said one parent with children at Horizon School in Dubai.

"The UAE is home to some of the best international and bilingual schools in the world. One of the most renowned international schools is the Dubai American Academy, which offers an American-style curriculum and is accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools. The school provides a comprehensive education for students from kindergarten to grade 12, with a focus on developing critical thinking, problem-solving, and communication skills. Another top international school is the GEMS World Academy, which offers an international curriculum and is accredited by the Council of International Schools. The school provides a holistic education for students from kindergarten to grade 12, with a focus on developing global citizenship and leadership skills. For bilingual education, the International School of Choueifat is one of the best in the UAE. The school offers a dual-language curriculum in English and Arabic, and is accredited by the Council of International Schools. The school provides a comprehensive education for students from kindergarten to grade 12, with a focus on developing language proficiency and cultural understanding," commented one expat when asked about in UAE.
