From its humble origins in 1963, Dubai English Speaking School now boasts modern facilities and classrooms of the highest standards. There are now 800+ children with 5 classes in each year group. The Primary School covers the National Curriculum for England and Wales for children from age 4 to 11. In 2006, building on over 40 years of tradition and reputation for academic excellence, Dubai English Speaking School (DESS) opened its own Secondary school, Dubai English Speaking College (DESC) in impressive modern buildings in Academic City. We now look to the future, providing quality British education for children up to the age of 18 and preparing our students for university entry and adulthood. As we celebrate 50 years in 2013, it is with great pride that we look back on the school’s progress since its beginnings in 1963.
They enable their students to learn and be challenged in ways that I would never have imagined. What I am truly impressed with is the dedication each staff member reflects towards their job, the students, their peers, and towards the entire school. My daughter loves it here.
(February, 2011)We moved our son to DESS (from another school in Dubai) 6 months ago and could not be happier. He is a different child – more engaged, more focussed, more motivated and performing at a higher level in all areas. We feel incredibly fortunate to have secured a place at this fabulous school and are also relieved that his passage into the high school (DESC) is guaranteed.

My daughter is in her second year at this school. She’s been exposed to different languages, visual arts, music, voice, drama, math, reading, social studies, knitting, and just about every other topic I could imagine that a child could absorb and retain. The school population is rich in diversity, and the parents have a strong presence in the school. Communication (in my experience) is transparent between the teachers and families, and parent participation is encouraged. I have found them to be terrific at what they do and will continue to recommend to other parents.
