- Kings Dubai inspection dates 26-29 October 2009?
Kings School Dubai fees
- Fees information not found on Kings Dubai website but assuming they implement the 15% increase allowed as a result of the "Outstanding" rating for 2008-2009, that implies 2009-2010 fees are AED 30,682-46,690, and if the report of a repeated "Outstanding" rating is correct then possibly up to AED 35,284-53,694 annual tuition fees for 2010-2011.
- Figures in italics are estimates only, and unconfirmed.
- Kings School Dubai is a primary school only so there are no Year 7-13 classes.
