The Al Maaref Private School, located in Al Qusais, was has been in operations for more than two decades. From its conception to date, the Al Maaref learning community is committed to the mission and core values – Respect, Compassion, Happiness, Resiliency, Tolerance and Responsibility – these values serve as a foundation for the learning experiences that prepare students to successfully navigate their future. With over 20 years of service to children, AMPS continuously aims to improve the quality of learning experience provided to over 1,700 KG - Grade 12 students.
Students at AMPS are now experiencing an American curriculum that embraces STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Mathematics) education. We are working collaboratively to build students’ critical thinking, creativity and problem-solving skills.
We follow USA-New York State Standards for all subjects, including the NY Common Core for Mathematics and English. We have also begun the journey of enhancing our curriculum internationally with best practice research through NGSS and Global Scholar international standards. These standards provide our students with a rigorous framework that prepares them for not just school but life (college and career readiness).
Our early years program has begun a transition from traditional to best practices that promote more creativity and independent learners. Young children are guided to acquire social and academic skills through stories, songs, imagination and manipulatives. In upper primary through high school years, students are assessed using the Measure of Academic Progress Test (MAP). MAP assessment provides teachers real-time data as to the individual progress each student is making in reading, math and science. Grades 11 and 12 are exposed to Naviance and other experiences that prepare them with the skills needed to successfully enter a university, a pre-professional program or the world of work. All graduates will earn a U.S. Diploma with accreditation.
The School Health Clinic provides high quality of preventive, primitive, curative and rehabilitative services by applying the best knowledge concerning health care services delivering by well trained clinic staff to achieve and sustain excellence in quality of care and personal services while providing an outstanding work environment and professional growth to the students as per Dubai Health Authority principles.

What I love most about this school is the security, safety, family environment, and friendship that the school provides. The special thing about it is the way of communications between the parents the administrative and educational staff. It is a wonderful level and a great deal of efficiency, as you will not find similar methods of communication in other schools.

For me, it is one of the best schools in Dubai. My kids have been there since they were in KG1, and now they are in 6th and 4th grade, and they are very happy in school.
The best thing about Al Maaref School is that they listen to the parents and are always ready to solve any problem facing the student with open arms.
