Notes about this directory and list of Abu Dhabi schools
- To add a school in Abu Dhabi to this list, start a new topic in the Abu Dhabi schools forum.
- Al Ain and Ruwais schools are not included in this list.
- School name does not always indicate curriculum or predominant student nationality e.g. some "International" schools have mostly students of one nationality and/or a national curriculum.
- Sort by tel number to group schools in the same geographical area (first 2 or 3 digits after country and city code indicate area).
- School finder and directory list includes Abu Dhabi schools, colleges and villa schools in Abu Dhabi which offer expatriate curriculums - English (including Australian / British / Canadian / UK / USA), French, German, Indian, Russian, Pakistan, and private UAE and Arabic schools where English is the medium of instruction.
Complaints hotline
- Parents can complain to ADEC about private schools in Abu Dhabi by phoning a new telephone service, tel 800-555 (toll-free in UAE) (news reports 01 Oct 2012).
