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. Application and initial assessment. Admission is based on an informal assessment of your child and seat vacancy. The school records the date and time of each parent's submission of registration forms and documents to guide placement. Submissions are expected in person at the school.
2. Required documents. In-person submission is required for a completed and signed student application form and copies of the requested documents. These include copies of both parents' passports with UAE residence for non-Emirati parents, a copy of the child's passport with UAE residence for non-Emirati students, immunization records, a copy of the child's UAE ID (both sides) or a copy of the UAE ID application, and a copy of the birth certificate or an acceptable birth document. For students transferring from another country, the previous marks report is required; for transfers within the UAE, the transfer certificate and report card are also required. Birth and transfer documents from outside the UAE must be attested by the UAE Ministry of Health, the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the embassy of the issuing country; for births issued in UAE, Canada, USA, Western Europe, Australia or New Zealand, attestation requirements for the transfer certificate differ. Two recent color photographs of the child (4 × 6 cm) are required.
3. Age placement and Year/Grade system. The school provides an age-placement guide that explains the difference between the Year System (Foundation Stage 1 through Year 13) and the Grade System (Pre-KG through Grade 12). The guidance helps align placement with national and ADEK expectations when moving between curricula. Parents and students are advised to review the age-placement information for specific mappings and criteria.
4. Transfer considerations. If transferring from another school, the transfer certificate and report card are required documents for enrollment. Attestation requirements apply as noted for birth and transfer certificates, with certain exceptions based on country of issue. The process uses the documented dates and times to determine appropriate placement and ensure correct grade/year alignment.
