  • Email received from The English College (TEC?) to clarify that school is co-ed at senior levels, not segregated.
  • Contact email updated (was headsec@englishcollege.ac.ae, might still be valid).
  • Tuition fees for 2007-2008 and 2008-2009 estimated based on KHDA information that The English College was eligible for 16% fees increase in the secondary school (Grades 7-12) for 2008-2009.

  • Many would regard The English College as one of the better schools in Dubai for a western / UK education.
  • TEC doesn't quite have the reputation of the American School in Dubai or Dubai College, but then it's not as snobby either.
  • Might be segregated in the secondary school?
  • Alternative email info@englishcollege.ac.ae.
  • Majority of students and staff at The English College are British.
  • Incorrect tel and fax nos seen are tel +971-4-3446465 (is for an IT shop?), fax +971-4-3446342 (for Emirates English Speaking School?).
