I’ve lived in Dubai for 30 years, completed high school here, and after graduating from university, have spent the past 13 years working in the education sector. My work has taken me to schools across the region, meeting with teachers, managers, and owners. Among them, I was truly impressed by the owner’s mission and vision for Citizens, as well as his forward-thinking approach to shaping education. The campus itself is remarkable; neat, welcoming, and thoughtfully designed. It offers outstanding sports facilities, including a gym, swimming pool, football pitch, paddle courts, and an indoor sports hall. The classrooms are modern, the teachers are warm and approachable, and the entire staff has been incredibly supportive throughout the admissions process and ever since. Most importantly, my son loves going to school. For the first time, he’s the one waking me up in the morning, rather than the other way around! Not only have I enrolled my son at Citizens, but I’ve also recommended the school to other parents, and their children are now proud Citizens as well.

Citizens School Dubai is, without a doubt, the best school in the UAE! Our journey with the school has been truly outstanding. My daughter started in FS1, is now completing FS2, and is excited to move into Year 1. Her growth—both academically and personally—has been incredible. Citizens School is an exceptional institution that prioritizes innovation, creativity, and student-centered learning. With a forward-thinking curriculum that develops critical thinking, real-world skills, and even entrepreneurship from an early age, the school truly prepares children for the future. What makes Citizens even more special is its amazing community. Not only are the teachers inspiring and dedicated, but the teacher assistants, nurses, admin staff, security guards, cleaners—everyone—is warm, helpful, and deeply committed to the wellbeing and success of each child. You can feel the care and positive energy across the entire school. The facilities are state-of-the-art, including a swimming pool, science labs, large classrooms, and vibrant activity spaces that support holistic development. Communication with parents is excellent, and the inclusive, welcoming atmosphere makes every family feel at home. We are proud to be part of the Citizens School family and highly recommend it to any parent seeking a nurturing, modern, and high-quality education. Our daughter is not just learning—she is thriving, thanks to the incredible support of the entire school team.

i am a founding parent at Citizens School. The uniqueness of this inclusive school lies in caring for the needs of both students and parents in today’s fast-changing world. The school is a safe place with caring mentors and staff, sensory friendly seating and ambience, well designed areas and great sports facilities. Citizens emphasizes the overall well-being of all students from over 70 countries. Project Based Learning (PBL) combines what the students in each year group learn in Math, Science and English into practical projects with real world application. Languages, Art and Culture and Sports are an important part of school life. Entrepreneurship is greatly encouraged, and children participate with self-made products on Makers’ Mondays and school events. There are many options for after school activities and clubs. For parents, the school provides free classes such as Arabic, French, English, Art and Fitness. Recently, they held a valuable parent training course on Hands only CPR from American Heart Association (AHA) in association with Dubai Health Authority (DHA). The Coffee Mornings are helpful for parents to get to know each other, the curriculum and varied topics including helping children with school transitions. We have experienced positive growth and overall development of our child from the first day of school in 2022 to today. Citizens School is building a community of thriving Global Citizens and our family is very happy to be part of this community.

We love the school, the facilities, the mentors, and the learning methods. Kids are not only following a set curriculum but are developing in a well-rounded way—personal growth, participation in projects, encouragement of an eco-friendly mindset, support, inclusion, and even early business thinking. At this school, children are guided by mentors, not just taught standard lessons from a fixed plan by teachers. We have seen motivation, encouragement, and multidimensional development over the past two years. Like any new school, there are still areas being refined and improved, but that is also a positive aspect—parents and children are heard, feedback is valued, and the school evolves accordingly. And yes, if you are looking for a purely standard British school, this might not be the perfect fit for you. Here, the approach is broader, more assembled, and focused on multi-faceted development. 🌸 We love it 🤍

Amazing school. You know from the first day of school when it’s supposed to be a total mess and it’s very busy everywhere yet they handle it in a very professional fashion. Our daughter didn’t have breakfast in the morning so we went to the reception and told them to give her a snack and Rochelle was super nice and professional and kind and took the meal we bought and asked our child to come out of the class to have a bite before she continues. I also received three calls as a follow up, asking about allergies and preferences. Lala was the one who called to follow up. She was great too the school facilities and amenities and organization is not highly recommended.
