- Dubai: The first ever quality evaluation report of Dubai schools is now open to public.
Four schools have been rated as outstanding while six others were marked unsatisfactory.
Dubai Schools Inspection Bureau (DSIB) put the first inspection summary reports onto the Knowledge and Human Development Authority’s (KHDA’s) website () on Thursday morning.
The report classifies schools into four performance categories – outstanding, good, acceptable and unsatisfactory.
Outstanding schools are: Jumeirah College (A Branch of Premier Schools International LLC), Jumeirah English Speaking School, Jumeirah English Speaking School (Branch), Kings Dubai.
And the unsatisfactory schools include: Arab Unity School, DEANS International School, Grammar School, Star International School-Al Twar, The Oxford School, Al Ameen Pvt. School.
The reports from the first batch of 69 schools, which were inspected, also highlight key findings from the inspections, particularly the strengths of the school and recommendations for improvement.

Awesome. My old school, Arab Unity, is in the bad list.
They have a better rating by votes from parents, students, teachers than JC which was on the outstanding list :). Here's a complete with comparisons for the top and bottom ranked schools. Mayflower i hope the top ranking schools dont use this as an opportunity to hike their fee sage & onion Very interesting information. One wonders what action will be taken for Schools that are rated as unsatisfactory? Misery Called Life Indian, Pakistani and Iranian schools are yet to be rated! The reports of these schools should be interesting, considering that they have the largest foot-falls! quatroporte

in my opinion... the idea of this list is to NAME THE SHAME..
I think publicity naming those unsatisfactory schools in the media will force those schools to work on their reputation...
yet, i still believe the government should make sure certain standards to be consistent across all the schools bonk

Permitted fee increases vary depending on rating. Nothing further this time around but closure could be a consequence eventually. gtmash

Well, these poor schools can now increase their fees by only 7% per year. The other ones now can increase fees by 15% per year just for doing what they are supposed to do. Good for Dubai’s inflation rate. sage & onion

well I am Lebanese, and my parents didn't want to pay $$$$ for a western school!!! I moved to CBSE from level 6 onwards... vistasad I've been a teacher for a long time. I have now moved into SAT training. We are a small group which is moving into online teaching. Some of us have done that with a fair deal of success. While online teaching can never substitute a school it can be used by schools to improve curriculum delivery. Most of the schools including the one's in the top 10 of Dubai are sorely lacking in this area of computer education (not literacy). kanelli With the high cost of education and some of the schools receiving bad reports - makes homeschooling appear like a pretty good option now.

at firsd I cursed the day I joined CBSE... coz it was so bloody difficult... but when I joined university... there was a huge gap between us who are CBSE educated from the other education mediums... we simply were the top students not because we are smart... because everything was so easy compared to what we studied in high school...
school days were amazing and I made real friends since then
I am so pleased... and proud that I finished CBSE levels... :)
