It starts with an idea. The idea of a community committed to learning. A community built around the shared pursuit of knowledge. A community built around respect: for ourselves, for each other, and for the world around us.
A home away from home, a house of knowledge.
More than an IB Curriculum school, Dar Al Marefa is a community that empowers every child and enriches their development, giving them the skills they need to become lifelong learners.
We encourage children to become active members of their social communities - members who are knowledgeable, confident and kind.
Dar Al Marefa is an inspiring educational initiative by Al Ghurair and is a top ranked learning institution, and the only bilingual International Baccalaureate Curriculum school in Dubai. In partnership with parents, friends, and the local community, we aim to make a significant contribution to the UAE’s next generation, instilling in them Emirati and Islamic values.
Our vision is to create a community that fosters lifelong learning, is rooted in its values and beliefs, is open minded, tolerant and appreciates diversity. Our graduates are principled and courageous individuals, ready to contribute to a more just and peaceful world.
Our mission is to build a consistent, challenging and safe learning environment that supports each child in exploring their capabilities, encourages them to respect other cultures and embrace the world with open-mindedness, tolerance and confidence.

A very good and advanced school with a good security system. I would like to thank the school principal and the staff, especially the security who deals with our children. I thank Ms. Hoda Hassan, the security officer, for her distinguished and high-level treatment of the children and her wonderful effort in protecting and containing them.

I attended this school from grade 8 to grade 12, and have only great things to say about my experience. The teachers are amazing, the IB curriculum is the best which very much prepared me for university and each child is treated with care by the amazing faculty. And of course I have to say how beautiful the new campus is!
