Ajyal International School is a private, co-educational British school in Mohammed Bin Zayed (MBZ) City, Abu Dhabi (Malaqit Street, Zone 15), founded in 2014 by the Bin Omeir Foundation and operated by Alephya Education. It teaches the National Curriculum for England — integrated with the UAE Ministry of Education programme — from the Early Years Foundation Stage through IGCSE, A Level and BTEC (FS1 to Year 13, ages 3-18); classes are mixed in the early years and gender-separated from Year 6. With around 1,494 students (roughly 40% Emirati), capped class sizes of 15 and a 1:14 ratio, it offers individualised attention and is rated Very Good by ADEK (November 2024) on a steady upward trajectory. The campus includes two indoor swimming pools, a 350-seat auditorium and Design & Technology rooms with 3D printing, and PISA 2022 results placed it above international averages.
