Ajman Academy
Ajman Academy is a British international and IB World School in Al Tallah 2, Ajman, established in 2012 and now the largest school in the emirate on a purpose-built 645,830 sq ft campus just off the E311. It delivers an inquiry-led British-IB pathway: the IB Primary Years Programme (authorised 2014) from Pre-KG to Grade 5, the IB Middle Years Programme (authorised 2021) across Grades 6-8, and Cambridge/Edexcel IGCSE followed by AS and A Levels in Grades 9-12. Co-educational and home to around 1,000 students from over 50 nationalities - with an Emirati majority - the school is accredited by the Council of International Schools (reaccredited 2026), inspected under British Schools Overseas (2024) and recognised as an Apple Distinguished School, and was the first school in the UAE to earn the British Dyslexia Association's Dyslexia Friendly Quality Mark. Its most recent UAE Ministry of Education inspection (2022-23) rated the school Good, supported by a stable team and a low 6% teacher turnover against a UAE average of 20-22%.
