Let the school know you're thinking of applying — they can share their prerequisites and help you through the process.
It's best to ask — circumstances can change at any time.
1. Step 1 — Submit required documents and pay the One Time Capital Fee. The school lists the following documents for applicants (KG1 through Grade 1): a copy of the student's birth certificate certified by the MOFA, four passport-size photographs, copies of the student's and parents' passports with a valid visa for non-Omani family members, a health vaccination card, a transfer letter from the previous school, the last grade report (certified by MOFA and equated to MOE), and copies of the resident cards for both the student and parents. The One Time Capital Fee is 250 OMR. These items must accompany the application, and the fee is a separate upfront charge. This step requires the family to prepare and submit all listed materials to initiate the admission process.
2. Step 2 — Verify grade eligibility and review cost details. The school publishes explicit age ranges by grade to determine appropriate placement (e.g., KG1 is for attending ages 3 years 2 months to 4 years 11 months, KG2 for ages around 4 years 2 months to 5 years 11 months, Grade 1 for 5 years 2 months to 7 years 2 months, etc.). Each grade has a total annual fee comprised of School Fees plus Book & Stationery (for example, KG1 totals 1550 OMR with 1350 OMR for fees and 200 OMR for books, and Grade 12 totals 2850 OMR with 2450 OMR for fees and 400 OMR for books). The numbers and the mixed English/Arabic fee details are provided per grade on the admissions materials. The One Time Capital Fee remains separate from these annual charges.
3. Step 3 — Transfer, MOE equivalence, and documents review; admission decision timing is not published. In addition to the documents above, the page references a transfer letter from the previous school and a school report of the last grade (certified from MOFA and equated to MOE) as part of the submission, with MOE equivalence for non-Omani students. The site does not publish a timetable for decisions or the exact communication method, so families are advised to await confirmation from the school after document review. For further details or to confirm any grade-specific requirements, contact FSIS using the numbers and emails listed on the school's contact page.
4. Step 4 — Enrollment confirmation and fee settlement. Once admitted, families typically proceed to enroll and settle the applicable tuition by grade, which is the sum of the Grade's School Fees and Books & Stationery. The page also indicates a sibling-discount structure (5% for the 2nd child, 10% for the 3rd, and 15% for the 4th child) to be applied to the tuition charges. The One Time Capital Fee is a separate, upfront charge. This step includes confirming enrollment and arranging payment of the current year's charges.
5. Step 5 — Uniforms and transport arrangements. The FSIS site notes sections for Uniforms and Bus Routes as part of the admissions/enrollment package. Uniform costs are not published on the page, while bus routes are listed with annual costs by region (e.g., Sohar routes with various stop names and annual fares such as Al Afifa, Al Ghushba, Al Hambar, etc., and Liwa and Shinas/Saham routes with corresponding fees). Families should plan for these additional annual costs alongside tuition and books, and contact the school for exact current figures and bus-route eligibility.
6. Step 6 — Curriculum and language of instruction. FSIS operates under Cambridge International Education in addition to the local Ministry of Education framework, and it is an ECIS-accredited school. The curriculum is delivered in English and Arabic, with French and Urdu offered as a third-language option. This provides a bilingual learning environment alongside Cambridge examinations for eligible grades.
There is no published waitlist or pool policy on FSIS's site. The admissions pages describe required documents, grade-specific fees, and other enrollment details, but they do not outline any waitlist procedure. For confirmation, contact the school's administration via the listed channels. Contact details: +968 94904409; futurescienceschool@gmail.com.
