Dubai British School | Top British International School

Message from the Principal

It is my very great pleasure to welcome you to Dubai British School Emirates Hills (DBSEH), a Taaleem school.

DBSEH is a thriving British international school, located in The Springs and Meadows area of Dubai’s Emirates Hills. As a Taaleem school, we provide high-quality education to approximately 1500 students aged 3 to 18. Our school is sited on two modern campuses, a short walk away from each other. At the DBSEH main campus, students from Year 3 – 13 enjoy a full suite of options, learning spaces and specialist staff tailored to their needs. At our brand new DBSEH ‘Islands’ campus, our youngest learners (Rising 3 – Year 2) have bright, modern learning spaces and a campus tailored to their needs, along with specialist staff, administrative and support staff, medical staff, an inclusion team and of course…fabulous teachers!

The school is a warm and happy one, well regarded within Dubai and with a distinct ‘community feel’ evidenced by the number of students cycling, scootering or walking from within the local community and the welcome presence of families at our onsite café for their morning caffeine hit and catch-up with other parents.

Schools are often talked about as being ‘happy places’, but DBSEH is made up of happy people – happy to be respected, valued, and appreciated, given every opportunity to succeed in a way that is meaningful to them. I do hope that you are able to visit the school, to see and feel this for yourself, and to hopefully join the DBSEH community as a student, parent or member of staff.

Why Choose Us

Dubai British School Emirates Hills is one of very few schools on Dubai’s educational landscape to operate on a small, 3-form entry scale. This ensures that students across the school regularly have the opportunity to interact with each other, and have the opportunity to build supportive relationships with our staff throughout their time with us.

These supportive relationships form the foundations of success for our students, as we get to know your child’s individual needs and interests and accommodate them accordingly.

With accredited outstanding outcomes at key points in our students’ educational journeys; Foundation Stage, Primary, GCSE, A Level and BTEC, you can be sure that we will support your child to be the best that they possibly can be at DBS Emirates Hills.
