  • Gulf News Express reported that Parents allege that The Philippine School is selling overpriced textbooks and notebooks. With examples of book charges being double what they cost in Manila, Philippines.

  • The Philippine School moved to a new building/campus in Rashidiya sometime in 2010? Date of move not supplied. New telephone number is +971-4-2844465? KHDA and UAE Yellow Pages information is still tel +971-4-2544886 (old number?). Not clear if fax number +971-4-2544887 still valid (old number, KHDA information).
  • Website domain www.thephilippineschool.com seen in some sources is spam. Correct website is www.thephilippineschooldubai.com. Another domain seen in other sources is www.thephilippineschool.org but nothing available when checked.
