The Apple International Community School publishes 2026–27 tuition for 13 year groups: AED 15,850 (FS1 and FS2) to AED 20,955 (Year 11). Compared with 2025–26, KHDA's approved tuition is unchanged in every year group that appears on both sheets.
The first figure is the fee after the discount the school's 2026–27 sheet lists, with KHDA's approved tuition beneath it. 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.

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.

Questions about The Apple International Community School fees
Does the fee include books, uniform or transport?
No. The figures above are tuition only. The school's 2026–27 sheet lists the other charges in «Other charges» above; transport and trips are priced as a range the school may charge up to. What school costs beyond tuition in Dubai
What was the fee last year?
KHDA's approved tuition for 2025–26 was the same as for 2026–27 in every year group on both sheets; the 2025–26 column shows each figure.
Is there a sibling discount?
Yes. The school's 2026–27 sheet lists sibling discounts on a scale that starts at «Sibling 1»; «Other discounts the school states» in «What a year costs» above gives each one, as listed. Not every discount may apply to every family, so ask the school which apply to yours.
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, The Apple International Community School teaches FS1 to Year 11, 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
How does the fee compare with other British schools?
«How the fee compares» above counts, for each year group, how many British schools charge less and how many charge more for 2026–27. «Nearby schools» lists the eight nearest with their figures and ratings.
Will the fee rise next year?
For 2027–28, no figure is published yet: it appears only when KHDA publishes the school's sheet. In most years KHDA sets, through the Education Cost Index, how much a school may raise its fee. KHDA confirmed there will be no increase in private school fees for the 2026–27 school year. The sheet's own line on increases is in «What a year costs» above.
