Abu Dhabi Indian School – Muroor

Abu Dhabi Indian School (ADIS) is a not-for-profit CBSE community school in the Muroor district of Abu Dhabi, established in 1975 on land gifted by the late Sheikh Zayed and governed by a community board. The flagship ADIS campus teaches the CBSE/NCERT curriculum (affiliation no. 6630004) from KG1 to Grade 12 (ages 4-18), with co-educational classes splitting into separate boys' and girls' sections from upper primary, leading to the AISSE and AISSCE board examinations with Science and Commerce streams. One of the largest private schools in the emirate at around 4,930 students taught by 285 teachers (turnover only ~6%), it charges among the lowest fees for a full K-12 CBSE education (AED 5,560-11,690), and ADEK has rated it Good across three consecutive Irtiqa cycles, with CBSE Grade 10 and 12 results rated Outstanding and teaching Very Good.
Fees read from the school's published 2026-27 fee schedule; ADEK rating from its 2024-25 inspection report. Last checked 10 July 2026. How Talem verifies →
Fees for 2026/2027, per year group. Excludes registration, uniform, and transport.
Tuition approved by ADEK for 2026-2027, AED 6,570 (KG) to 11,690 (Grades 11 and 12). The school follows the CBSE year, which runs April to March, so this year began in April 2026. Note that kindergarten costs more than lower primary here. In Grades 11 and 12 the school offers Science and Commerce streams and publishes a single fee of AED 11,690 on all of its own fee charts; ADEK separately approves a lower maximum of AED 9,910 for the non-Science stream, so if your child is taking Commerce it is worth asking the school which figure applies. Fees are collected for ten months across three terms, due before 31 March, by 20 October and by 20 January, and post-dated cheques are not accepted. No registration or admission fee is charged, and ADEK prohibits the school from taking a deposit. Charged separately: optional transport at AED 2,500 a year, books from AED 140 to 340 by grade, and CBSE registration of AED 150 in Grade 9, 700 in Grade 10, 150 in Grade 11 and 800 in Grade 12. Children of school staff receive 50% off tuition and transport, and children of Indian Embassy staff 50% off transport. The school has applied to ADEK for an exceptional fee increase which was still pending as of the second term; if approved it would be collected later in the year with arrears.
