• Initial assessment cost is 3300 dhs.
• New registration fee 500 dhs, annual administration fee of 3000 dhs. Check fees with school, some variation depending on whether day student or afternoon student.
• School operates grades 1 to 9, small class sizes, follows the British or UK International Primary Curriculum (IPC).
• Emirates Today (a UAE based newspaper) carried a lengthy article about some BILD child development research that yielded surprising results after a modified learning program. Children with learning difficulties made greater than expected progress.
