This report provides an overview of the educational performance and standards of the 159 schools in Dubai that were inspected during the 2016-2017 school inspection cycle. It also highlights the key messages to these schools, drawn from findings of the inspection that were carried out.

  1. More Emirati students are attending good or better schools. For the first time, more than half of Emirati students in Dubai schools attend good or better schools.
  2. Schools are a good place for community cohesion. For the first time, the majority of private schools in Dubai operate a level of provision for students with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), which is good or better.
  3. The UAE National Agenda - achieving the aspirations of the UAE Vision 2021.
  4. Students are making steady progress in the core subjects.
