03 June 2010 - teacher benefits package
- A Head of Department position was being advertised in May 2010 for "Dubai International School, UAE" (DIS) by The Consultancy Group in the UK. Salary wasn't supplied but benefits package was. However, the amounts seem to indicate it was more likely to be for Emirates International School (EIS) than DIS, and the advertisement might have been for an international school in Dubai rather than DIS itself. See the EIS page for more details.
- Or it might have been another school entirely.
09 October 2008
- There is also a DIS Al Quoz (or Nadd Al Sheba) branch.
- DIS is unrelated to Dubai International Academy, Dubai National School, or Emirates International School.
- Domain name updated (www.dischool.com forwards to new domain).
- Fees updated (was AED 9,460-14,850 per year for 2006-2007). KHDA information says DIS applied for 20% increase for 2008-2009 but was ineligible since they already had a 16% increase for 2007-2008.
- Additional contact details for DIS are Administration tel +971-4-2823524, Kindergarten tel +971-4-2823472, Clinic tel +971-4-2826610. Additional email addresses
dischool@emirates.net.ae,
dischool@eim.ae, info@dischool.com.
- Domain www.dischool.com forwards to www.dis.sch.ae, and www.disschool.com is spam.
- KHDA also says that the DIS Al Quoz branch offers International Baccalaureate (IB), but DIS not found on the IBO website list of schools for the UAE.
