Ash Mount School opens in August 2026 in Mudon, Dubai, as a founding member of Interstar Advisory Services. The school is led by Dinesh Kothari and Amit Kothari and draws on more than 25 years of Interstar's experience in operating schools in the UAE and India. The Interstar group operates several Dubai schools with strong inspection outcomes, including Victory Heights Primary School (KHDA Outstanding) and Delhi Private School Dubai (KHDA Very Good). The Ash Mount campus is purpose-built to be at the centre of the Mudon community, reflecting a community-focused ethos. The school presents an International Learning Pathway from Pre-KG to Grade 12, with the initial year covering Pre-KG to Grade 8 and a plan to expand over time to Grade 12.
Ash Mount School is positioned at the heart of Mudon, with a purpose-built campus designed to be central to community life. The learning spaces are flexible and connected, including libraries, science labs, design and arts studios, a black box theatre, and extensive sports facilities, all aimed at supporting enquiry and collaboration. The school emphasizes ongoing engagement with families through open communication, regular forums, parent talks, and community events to shape the school journey. Public materials highlight events and activities that involve the wider community and families, reinforced by blog updates such as Voices of Ash Mount which document school life and community experiences.
Public materials describe Ash Mount School's approach to parent involvement through working with families and regular forums, parent talks, and community events. There is no publicly listed page or leadership for a formal Parent-Teacher Association. Parent engagement is framed as part of the school's open-door philosophy and ongoing dialogue with families. The emphasis on forums and community events serves as the primary mechanism for parental input and involvement at this stage. Current materials also reference regular parent forums and community activities as channels for family participation.
