Capital School publishes 2026–27 tuition for 15 year groups: AED 23,000 (FS1) to AED 48,000 (Year 12 and Year 13). Compared with 2025–26, KHDA's approved tuition is unchanged in every year group that appears on both sheets.
After the discount on each year's sheet, the fee is lower in nine year groups and higher in two, where the 2026–27 sheet's discount is smaller; the school did not raise its approved fee.
The first figure is the fee after the discount the school's 2026–27 sheet lists, with KHDA's approved tuition beneath it; the Change column compares KHDA's approved tuition, and where the fee after the discount moved by a different amount, a second line in the row says so and why. A discount can be conditional or for one year only, so confirm it with the school.
Tuition only, as KHDA gives it for each year group; other charges such as uniform, books and transport are listed separately below. A year group the school does not teach is not in the table.

How the fee compares with other British schools
For each year group: how many British schools in Dubai with a 2026–27 fee charge less than Capital School, and how many charge more. This is a count, not a ranking; a fee says nothing about a school's rating or whether it has places available.
- FS1: of the 93 British schools publishing 2026–27 tuition for it, 27 charge less than Capital School (AED 23,000) and 65 charge more. Every school's FS1 fee, 2026–27
- Year 7: of the 91 British schools publishing 2026–27 tuition for it, 37 charge less than Capital School (AED 38,500) and 53 charge more. Every school's Year 7 fee, 2026–27
- Year 13: of the 67 British schools publishing 2026–27 tuition for it, 27 charge less than Capital School (AED 48,000) and 39 charge more. Every school's Year 13 fee, 2026–27
Counted from the fee each school's 2026–27 KHDA Fees Fact Sheet gives for the year group, after any discount it lists, the same basis as the fee pages by year group. A discount can be for one year or conditional, so the count can shift when a discount ends. Lowest British fees by year group, with KHDA ratings

What was the fee last year?

After the discount on each year's sheet, the fee is lower in nine year groups and higher in two, where the 2026–27 sheet's discount is smaller; the school did not raise its approved fee.
Is there a sibling discount?
For some year groups. The school's 2026–27 sheets list sibling discounts, on a scale that starts at «Siblings 2 to 6», for Year 2 to Year 13; choose a year group above and «Other discounts the school states» in «What a year costs» gives them. Ask the school which apply to your family.
Why are there two figures in some rows?
The first is the fee after the discount the school's 2026–27 sheet lists; the second, «approved», is the tuition KHDA approved for that year group. The note under the table says when to confirm a discount with the school.
Which year group is the entry point?
By KHDA's directory, Capital School teaches FS1 to Year 13, and the 2026–27 sheet prices each of them. Which year group a child joins depends on age; enter a birth date and the year-group page works it out. Find the year group by birth date
