Boys and girls study in mixed classes through Year 2, with gender-separate classes from Year 3 onward. The school integrates the UAE Ministry of Education Arabic and Islamic Studies curriculum as well as Holy Quran instruction. Under the leadership of Principal Sadia Wajid, the school has achieved an Acceptable rating from KHDA with particular strengths in secondary English, Mathematics, and Science (all rated Good), and Personal and Social Development rated Good across the school with Very Good personal responsibility and Islamic values awareness in secondary.

Fees for 2026/2027, per year group. Excludes registration, uniform, and transport.
Tuition for 2026-2027 as published by the school. The school teaches FS2 to Year 11 and has no FS1 class. A compulsory charge of AED 1,104 applies to every year group on top of tuition, made up of a computer fee of AED 557, activities of AED 334 and a miscellaneous charge of AED 213, so a FS2 place costs AED 5,791 a year rather than AED 4,687. The school also prints a much larger total that rolls in books, uniform, stationery and other items it marks optional, together with VAT; that figure is not what every family pays. New students pay a non-refundable registration fee of AED 525 including VAT, plus an enrolment fee of up to 10 per cent of tuition deducted from the first term; returning families pay up to 5 per cent or AED 500, whichever is higher. There is no general discount. Reductions are conditional: 3 per cent for a second child and 5 per cent for a third and beyond, up to 50 per cent for staff, and a 3 per cent welcoming discount. Fees include Quran and Islamic Studies teaching.
