Dubai Gem Private School
Dubai Gem Private School
Dubai Gem Private School is one of Dubai's oldest schools, founded in 1973 as a small nursery with 20 students in a villa. Now serving approximately 1,200 students from FS1 through Year 13, the school follows the National Curriculum of England with GCSE and IGCSE qualifications. Rated Good by KHDA for 12 consecutive inspections with Very Good/Outstanding ratings in personal development, care and support, and teaching quality. Located on Oud Metha Road adjacent to the Iranian Club, the campus features a large open central space surrounded by academic blocks, with sports facilities including a swimming pool, sports oval, tennis and basketball courts via the Iranian Club partnership. The school has a separate nursery campus in Al Hudaiba. With over 50 years of educational service, Dubai Gem offers languages including Arabic, French, Hindi, and Urdu, and supports 105+ Students of Determination.
Fees for 2026/2027, per year group. Excludes registration, uniform, and transport.
Tuition is the KHDA-approved figure for 2026-2027, and Dubai Gem publishes the same annual tuition on all fifteen year groups in its own 2026-27 fee structure (Ref: Fees/2627/01, 27 July 2026). KHDA records that the school requested no increase for 2026-2027, so these match 2025-26. On top of tuition KHDA lists a mandatory block - books, classroom activities and resources, activities, medical and sports kit - running about AED 1,900 to AED 3,300 a year depending on year group; KHDA's "Total Fees" column is tuition plus that block, so the realistic annual bill is above the tuition shown here. Uniform, stationery, transport and extracurricular activities are extra again. Every discount the school offers is eligibility-gated, so the figures here are undiscounted.
