A warm community school – aiming to be the best British school in Dubai.
Kent College Dubai opened in 2016 and has a reputation as a warm, friendly, community school with an excellent balance between academic achievement and pastoral care. This British international school is situated just off A1 Ain Road adjacent to Meydan South, with easy access to surrounding areas of Meydan Precinct, Meydan Heights, The Villa, A1 Barari, Liwan, Nad A1 Sheba, Dubai Silicon Oasis, Mirdif and Arabian Ranches. Our world class facilities have resulted in KCD being called a top British international school with a ‘wow factor’, and a ‘ground-breaking school’. Most important, according to our present pupils, it is a place where ‘the staff bring out the best in you”. You are warmly invited to come and see for yourself. With students from over 82 nationalities, we aim to be the best British school in Dubai, bringing you premium private international schooling.

The Kent College Dubai School was established with the objective of providing the same high-quality education to families in Dubai as that offered by the founding school of Kent College Canterbury, while reflecting the local context and expectations of the UAE. Both schools promote tolerance and respect for others and aim to provide each pupil with an individual educational pathway that will fully prepare them for adult life.
Vision: Developing the full potential of each individual.

Kent College Dubai is truly one of the best schools in Dubai, offering a comprehensive education from nursery all the way up to Year 13. The school’s commitment to excellence is evident in its dedicated staff and supportive teachers.
One of the highlights for me as a parent is the school’s recent achievement: receiving a Very Good rating from the KHDA in 2024 inspection round. This recognition reflects the school’s continuous efforts to provide high-quality education and support to its students.
The UAE branch maintains a genuine relationship with the original Kent College, ensuring a consistent educational experience for students.

A wonderful, warm, family and community oriented British School in Dubai. My children have a smile on their faces every morning as they walk into school. That speaks volumes. Strong ethos, strong values.

Kent College is a truly premium school in Dubai. My children have so many opportunities, that extend well beyond the classroom. MUN conferences, residential trips, excellent ECA provision, theatre productions, together with sports teams in everything from Football, Netball to Water Polo. My children are very happy here and so are we as parents.
