Dubai International Academy - Emirates Hills

As the new millennium unfolds, our singular challenge is to prepare our students for leadership roles in a world where change is the only constant. Dubai International Academy responds to this change by delivering international programmes of study that provide our students with tools to communicate across the world and to help them become lifelong learners.

Dubai International Academy opened on September 10, 2005 with over 500 students from 55 countries and an equally diverse faculty of over 50 members of 18 different nationalities. In September 2010 we welcomed over 1840 students from 75 nationalities and over 240 staff from over 35 nationalities. Since inception, Dubai International Academy has quickly established itself as the international school of choice in new Dubai.

We are the first school in the country to offer a rigorous curriculum and a rich language programme based on the three prestigious programmes from the Geneva based International Baccalaureate (IB) – Primary Years Programme (PYP), Middle Years Programme (MYP) and Diploma Programme (DP).

We offer a rigorous curriculum and a rich language programme in an international setting based on the three prestigious programmes from the Geneva-based International Baccalaureate – Primary Years Programme (PYP), Middle Years Programme (MYP) and Diploma Programme (DP). In fact, we were the first school in the U.A.E authorised by the International Baccalaureate to offer the full continuum of the IB curriculum.
