Inspection Summary Reports

Dubai Schools Inspection Bureau is pleased to share the summary reports of all inspections carried out between October 2008 and April 2009.

Important Information

We hope that this information will encourage a conversation between schools and parents to help create an effective partnership for the improvement of each school.
We want parents to know that it is important to us that their child is happy and performing well at school. Bear this in mind when you read the data, which are designed to guide a school towards improvement. Please use this information with care and consideration.
The summary reports have been created to provide parents and other interested parties with an objective overview of the quality of education provided by all schools in Dubai.
Inspections report on how well students perform, the quality of the education and care provided by the school and the effectiveness of leadership and management. A four point scale is used to grade schools as outstanding; good; acceptable and unsatisfactory.

You can find an school by searching for the name of the school, the location, the type of curriculum or whether it is a public or private school.

What do the four categories really mean?

Outstanding	Good	Acceptable	Unsatisfactory
Almost all elements of the school’s work operate highly effectively. There are significant examples of excellent practice. The school delivers fully on an ambitious set of promises to parents.	The school performs well in all the key aspects of its work. The senior staff are capable of leading further improvement. The school delivers well on all the key aspects of its promise to parents.	The school has no significant weaknesses, but may face challenges in some key aspects of its work. The senior staff are aware of them and understand what will be involved in overcoming them. The school fulfils most aspects of its promise to parents.	The school has evident weaknesses. It appears at present to lack the capacity to improve significantly without considerable support.

Schools identified as providing, overall, an unsatisfactory quality of education will receive a follow through inspection. Inspectors will publish a follow through inspection report and this will be made available to parents on this website.
