About

Aspen Heights British School (AHBS) is a private co-educational school in Al Bahia, Abu Dhabi, near Emirates Park Zoo, opened in 2017 and operated by the International Schools Partnership (ISP). It follows the National Curriculum for England from FS1 through IGCSE, then switches to the IB Diploma Programme in the Sixth Form — an IB World School since September 2023, with Year 13 opening in September 2024 and the first DP cohort completing in 2025-26. The school has a distinctive eco-conscious identity, weaving sustainability through the curriculum via a hydroponics greenhouse, an animal care centre and outdoor nature provision, alongside two pools, a padel court and two astro pitches. Serving 1,237 students (around half Emirati) with 92 teachers and 52 teaching assistants, it was rated Good by ADEK in its February 2025 inspection, with tuition of AED 38,080-65,290 in 2025/26.
