Our academic program is designed to ensure that the majority of our students continue their education at leading universities worldwide. With over 90 nationalities represented, our diverse and inclusive community is at the heart of our school’s identity.

Our state-of-the-art facilities support a holistic approach to education, offering a wealth of opportunities in sports, performing arts, academics, technology, leadership, and creative disciplines. These experiences ensure that our students enjoy a rich and varied school life, both inside and outside the classroom.

The curriculum at Deira International School is grounded in the English National Curriculum but extends far beyond its standard expectations. In the Early Years, our personalised, play-based learning and continuous provision ensure rigorous assessment against the Early Years Foundation Stage framework, laying the groundwork for success in the Primary Curriculum. In primary school, students benefit from a broad and enriching curriculum, including a wide array of non-core subjects. Our senior students undertake the Cambridge Board IGCSE examinations in Year 11, followed by either the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) or the International Baccalaureate Career-Related Programme (IBCP) in Years 12 and 13. These prestigious and globally recognised qualifications open doors to universities worldwide. Throughout all stages, our curriculum is delivered through innovative and engaging teaching methods that meet the diverse needs of our students and focus on developing essential life skills.

At Deira International School, we challenge and inspire our students to exceed their expectations and achieve ambitious goals. Our recent results reflect this commitment to excellence, a success we attribute to the strong partnership between the school, our students, and their parents. I am incredibly proud of our dedicated and exceptional teaching staff, who provide students with a multitude of exciting learning opportunities. We strive to empower every student to make choices that align with their ambitions, free from external limitations, and guided by their potential.

Our students’ success is measured not only by their academic achievements but also by their development as dynamic, impactful global citizens ready to lead in their chosen paths. We encourage participation in our extensive co-curricular programs, which play a crucial role in this holistic development.

Our dedicated team ensures that every student receives personalized guidance and care, meeting their individual needs and helping them exceed their expectations. At Deira International School, students graduate not just with strong academic skills but also as architects of their futures, ready to take on the world.
