Dubai's 23 best-ranked schools and how much they charge

Parents in Dubai have the choice of dozens of highly rated private schools. Twenty-three schools in the emirate have been rated as 'outstanding' with 48 considered 'very good' by the Knowledge and Human Development Authority (KHDA), according to its latest report. The authority regulates and periodically inspects the emirate's schools, and their scale also includes ratings of 'good', 'acceptable' and 'weak'. The inspections mainly focus on two criteria – wellbeing and inclusion. Schools must also meet the requirements of the National Agenda Parameter which examines their performance in international assessments and progress towards meeting those targets. The parameter also looks at the results of external assessments for key subjects. Pause in inspections The authority released a report rating 209 schools in 2024 and announced that they would be pausing full inspections for the 2025-26 academic year for most schools. Only schools in their third year of operation would be subject to a comprehensive inspection, the authority clarified in May. It said the pause was part of an 'evolving approach to supporting quality education in the emirate'. The inspections were also paused during the 2024-2025 academic year. However, schools will have to continue measuring students' academic progress through external benchmark assessments and submit self-evaluation forms as required. KHDA will monitor school progress with targeted visits focused on specific criteria, Fatma Ibrahim Belrehif, chief executive of the Education Quality Assurance and Compliance Agency at KHDA, said in May. Demand is higher than ever. Dubai's private school operators told The National last year that they were planning to expand campuses and launch more schools to keep up with demand from the growing population.

Galadari Brothers' toy making CSR initiative brings joy to children in need

Galadari Brothers recently brought employees together for a meaningful CSR initiative focused on creativity, compassion, and community. Employees from across the group's divisions gathered to create soft toy penguins, lovingly crafting each one for refugee children in need. The session was lively and full of positive energy, as employees connected over a shared purpose. Some attendees also brought their children along, adding an extra layer of warmth and joy to the session as little hands eagerly joined in the creative process. Galadari Brothers' initiative echoes the UAE's broader vision of building a compassionate, inclusive society. Programmes such as the 'UAE Compassion' campaign and 'From UAE to Gaza' humanitarian drives have shown the country's unwavering commitment to giving. At a grassroots level, corporate efforts like Galadari Brothers' toy-making session carry this spirit forward. Among the volunteers was Monica Clayton Fernandes from the Motors Division, who summed up the experience beautifully: 'The session took me back to school. I had such a wonderful time letting go of every work-related stress, just thinking about the child who would receive the toy I was making, and what it might mean to them.' The toy-making session was part of Galadari Brothers' broader CSR initiatives aimed at fostering empathy and community support. Alongside the initiative, the leading conglomerate also concluded a successful toys and clothes donation drive across its diverse businesses, conducted in collaboration with Beit Al Khair Society. The initiative saw enthusiastic participation from employees, who came together to donate items that will now find new homes with families in need. Together, these efforts highlight the group's ongoing commitment to making a positive social impact while continuing to drive business success.
