AIS, one of the top private schools in Abu Dhabi, was founded in 1992 by Mrs. Jihan Nasr, who has been a beacon in the field of education in the region for over four decades. She firmly believes that we must do our bit to leave the world a better place and has been made it her mission to do so through education.
Our priority is to help every student create their own destiny and become happy, productive individuals. We nurture independent thinking and emotional resilience so they may navigate their futures successfully, and have built a loving, positive environment in which they can develop imagination, empathy, and curiosity.
AIS is a private, coeducational K-12 day school licensed by the United Arab Emirates Ministry of Education. We have two contemporary campuses in MBZ City and Abu Dhabi City, and look forward to opening our upcoming third campus in Saadiyat soon.
We are an ADEK-rated high performing school with an outstanding ranking and recognition for our governance, inclusion program, external program, and college admissions. In addition to our academic offerings, our wide range of extra-curricular activities focuses on talent development, creativity, community service, and skill building.
We are one of the few schools in Abu Dhabi with a legacy of over 30 years in the field of education. AIS recognizes that our students come from distinct backgrounds and have varied academic and career aspirations. Our curated educational offering helps students transition seamlessly to new curriculums and go on to study in different parts of the world.
AIS works closely with the families of our students to create a seamless ecosystem of lifelong learning. We are proud to say that this has proven successful, as every graduating class goes on to become pioneers in whichever field they choose

This is an incredible learning environment for students, where my daughters have not only mastered reading and writing skills since kindergarten but also started on scientific inquiries to explore their surroundings. The school provides a safe and enjoyable atmosphere.

One of the best private schools in Abu Dhabi, having two Campuses, one is in Al Karama Street and the other is in MBZ which is the newest and renovated, the prices are very reasonable and all teachers are highly qualified and having the most recent certifications, School rating from ADEC is A+ which is excellent, the owners are on top of things and involved in day to day activities which is rare to find in schools now. Highly recommend considering the fees along with the rating!

My kids are in Abu Dhabi International PVT School. My children love the school and their teachers. They are excelling in all subjects and they really enjoy school days. The administration and the staff are very friendly and helpful. It is a school where real education and proper learning take place. I would highly recommend this school to everybody. Long live A.I.S. Keep up the great work as my children are not only learning subjects, but also they are building their character and learning how to be responsible, independent, and leaders....

I would highly recommend this school to everybody who really seeks for quality education. A.I.S does not only work on learning subjects, but mostly important on the skills that allow our children to be good citizens. The school has great quality in everything, including administration, teachers, and staff. A.I.S is a school where proper teaching takes place. I wish A.I.S all the best and I hope it keeps on shining as it is a real star in education............
