Popular Dubai Schools With Places For 3 to 6 Year-Olds: Sept 2017

In Dubai, we've come to accept that the first few years in almost every school will be heavily over-subscribed.  

However, September 2017 is looking just a little bit different. Thanks to a proliferation of new schools across the city, this September, looks set to be the first new academic year, where parents will have a broad choice of schools to choose from, for quite some time yet.

If you are still to decide where your little one will start in September, here's our WhichSchoolAdvisor.com round-up of Dubai’s FS/KG and Grade/Year 1 seats available now! 

Note: We have now opened up the Availability tab on school reviews to the schools themselves to complete, which over a period of time will mean you will be able to find the latest details on the site. You can also search for availability by year group.

Schools have been invited to add their details, and are now coming on board...
