Fees for 2024/2025, per year group. Excludes registration, uniform, and transport.
Figures are the fee structure SPEA approved for this school, AED 18,732 (KG1) to 36,060 (Grade 12). SPEA's column is headed "School Fees (Tuition + Book)", so the figures include books; uniform is charged separately at AED 700. This is the most recent approval SPEA publishes for the school and it dates from July 2024, so it is the 2024/2025 schedule. The school itself publishes no current fee schedule for its Sharjah campus, so no newer figure can be shown; it is admitting for 2026-2027, so confirm current fees with the school directly. Registration is deducted from tuition and is not refundable or transferable, but the school publishes no amount. An early-payment discount is offered on full payment before the start of Term 1, with no value published. Books and uniforms are non-refundable, and a returned cheque is charged at AED 500.
