The Sheffield Private School

The Sheffield Private School was founded in 2004 in Dubai. It is a British-style, affordable school with an inclusive admissions policy that serves national and expatriate students. The English National Curriculum lies at the core of its academic programme, complemented by an extensive extracurricular programme known as the Ultra-Curriculum. The school is owned and managed by Britus Education. The curriculum reflects the multicultural nature of its student body and aims to develop global citizenship; in February 2025, it received an Outstanding rating in its first British Schools Overseas inspection.

The Sheffield Private School maintains a close working relationship with its parents and community stakeholders. It emphasizes engaging families in the education of their children through formal channels such as a Parent Council and the Parent Teacher Association. The school community hosts events that bring families together, including the International Mother Language Fair, book fairs, talent shows, and family nights. The school also operates within an inclusive and diverse community culture that reflects its mission and values.

The Sheffield Private School's Parent Teacher Association (PTA) is a collaborative body comprising parents, teachers, and school staff dedicated to creating a supportive and engaging learning environment. It is an active and engaged group that organizes a range of events and activities throughout the year. Events include the International Mother Language Fair, book fairs, talent shows, and family nights. The PTA plays an advocacy role, ensuring that the voices of parents and teachers are heard in governance and decision-making processes affecting the school community. PTA members participate in local and state-level advocacy efforts to support students. The school operates within the Britus Education network.
