Al Itqan American School
Al Itqan American School is a private, co-educational American-curriculum school in the Al Azra area of Sharjah, established in 2013 and one of the most established American schools in its local cohort. It delivers the American curriculum aligned to the Common Core from KG1 to Grade 12 (ages 4-18), leading to a US High School Diploma, with strong English-as-a-Second-Language onboarding that accepts KG1 entrants with no prior English. Students are benchmarked through MAP, IBT, PISA, TIMSS, PIRLS and CAT4 assessments, and the school is Cognia-accredited and certified to ISO 9001 and ISO 21001. Serving roughly 921-1,016 students, Al Itqan was rated Good by the Sharjah Private Education Authority (SPEA) in both its 2023 and 2025 reports, and with fees from around AED 12,075 it is one of the lowest-fee American options in Sharjah.
