Fees for 2026/2027, per year group. Excludes registration, uniform, and transport.
The fees shown are what every family pays for 2026/27: KHDA's approved tuition less a discount the school applies to all pupils, which is why the approved column alongside is higher. KHDA records the reduction as an amount rather than a percentage, from AED 11,700 to AED 22,505 depending on year group. The approved fee was frozen for 2026-27 but the discount narrowed, so the amount actually billed is 3.5% up on last year. Sibling discounts of 5% to 12.5% apply on top and are separate. New pupils also pay an enrolment fee of up to 10% of tuition, deductible from the first term. Transport is charged separately over ten months. This is the Al Khail campus; the Mankhool school is a separate entity.
