English is the language of instruction in a British-curriculum setting. Arabic language and Islamic studies are taught under the leadership of the Head of Arabic and Islamic. Spanish is taught as a modern foreign language.
Dubai British School Jumeira, located in Al Wasl adjacent to the Dubai Water Canal, delivers the British Curriculum from Early Years (Rising 3s) through Sixth Form (Year 13). The campus features specific zones for Foundation Stage, Primary, and Secondary students, alongside dedicated spaces for BTEC assignments and design technology. Secondary learning emphasizes disciplinary literacy and structured talk in every subject, requiring students to engage with complex academic texts across disciplines. The school’s co-curricular program partners with external providers for unique offerings like Cyber Hockey Academy and Surf House Dubai, alongside internal clubs such as the Sustainability Squad and Arabic Calligraphy Club. A distinctive feature of the curriculum is the deliberate cross-subject integration in Key Stage 3; for instance, students apply principles from English Literature directly into their Design Technology projects, supported by targeted vocabulary instruction and personalized literacy interventions to ensure comprehension across all disciplines.
