What parents told KHDA (survey, 2019–20)

14 parents responded

The 2023–24 inspection report has no parents’ survey section; this is how the 2019–20 report, the newest with one and 6 years old, sums up parents’ answers, in the inspectors’ words.

  • Parents interviewed during the inspection and the few who responded to the survey indicate that they are satisfied with the education provided by the school, and the helpfulness of school leaders and teachers. Full Inspection Report 2019–20, page 20
  • They feel that their children are kept safe at school, and that the school provides good value for money. Full Inspection Report 2019–20, page 20

There are no reviews on this page. Dubai School Atlas does not collect or publish parents' opinions; the closest public evidence is KHDA's own survey, shown above with its year. Where to talk to parents about Dubai schools
