The Scholars School
The Scholars School is a new British-curriculum school in Al Quoz 1, Dubai, by Scholars International Group (50+ years in UAE education, owner of Dubai Scholars Private School), planned to open for the 2026-27 academic year on the premium campus currently occupied by Clarion School (which closes in July 2026). It follows the National Curriculum for England with a High Performance Learning (HPL) framework, branding itself the world's first HPL founding school, leading to IGCSE and A-Level in the senior years. Co-educational and all-through (ages 3 to 18), it opens with Foundation Stage to Year 6 and adds a phase each year. Founding-family fees start at AED 42,700, locked for three years. Founding Principal Kyle Knott was previously Director of Academic Improvement for the group. As a pre-opening school it is not yet inspected or rated by KHDA (DSIB). Note: the operator's own site has at times shown a 2027/28 intake; opening year to be confirmed with the school.

Fees for 2027/2028, per year group. Excludes registration, uniform, and transport.
This school opens in August 2027 and is not operating yet, so no 2026/27 fee exists. It publishes a single figure: a Founding Families rate starting at around AED 42,700 for Foundation Stage 1 for the 2027-2028 intake, which it says is locked for three academic years per child subject to annual re-enrolment deadlines, with places limited in each year group. That rate is a founding-cohort discount rather than a list price, and the school publishes no list price and no fees for any other year group. The founding intake covers Foundation Stage 1 to Year 6. Tuition includes books, key online resources and subscriptions, and stationery, and excludes transport, uniform and meals.
