Choosing between different curriculums in Dubai can be a tough and challenging task, and you’ll need to take multiple factors into account before making the final decision. Here are details about different curriculums that will help you out in a selection of a perfect school for your kids.

1. The Modern Education
System Of UAE

2. British curriculum
• The National Curriculum of England is enormously popular in the UAE
among expatriates. The planned structure of the curriculum takes care of
a child's education requirements from the age of 3 to 18.

3. • The National Curriculum of England is framed on the basis of four key
stages — key stage one: ages five to seven (years one to two); key stage two:
ages 7-11 (years three to six); key stage three: ages 11-14 (years seven to
nine); key stage four: ages 14-16 (years 10-11) — at the end of key stage
four students appear for General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE)
examinations.

4. • Schools in the UAE also present students opportunities to appear for
International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE)
examinations, which is an internationally recognized qualification for
students in the 14-16 age group.

5. • IGCSE is different from the GCSE in the sense that this is more familiar to
the requirements of the international community; it's a customized English
curriculum. GCSE has more UK specific topics for its examinations whereas
IGCSE covers more international topics.

6. • The Advanced level (A level) is frequently studied over a two-year period
and is divided into two parts — Advanced Subsidiary (AS level, year 12)
and A2 (year 13). A student has to study both the levels to attain a
complete A level certificate.

7. American curriculum
• The American system of education places a lot of importance on co-
curricular activities in addition to theoretical learning to make sure a
balanced growth of students. The American diploma holders are eligible
for entrance to all US universities and colleges and are ever more being
recognized by international schools of higher education

8. • In the elementary school, the curriculum is intended to offer each student
exposure to a full range of age-appropriate subjects so that young learners
have access to all areas of knowledge and they can begin to develop their
interest. In the middle school years, additional art electives and second
languages such as French or Spanish are added.

9. • In the high school, options expand more still to include further languages,
business studies, sciences and design technology. Students have choices in
both middle and high schools, but must study a minimum of six subject
areas all through — and most study seven or eight.

10. • The exams are based on the principles set for every course. The American
diploma is awarded once the numbers of credits necessary by the school are
earned by the student, normally at the completion of grade 12, when
students are 18 years of age.

11. International Baccalaureate
• There are schools in the UAE that offer pupils scope to pursue
International Baccalaureate (IB) programmes. IB offers three educational
programmes for pupils aged three to 19. Though very few schools in the
UAE offer all the three IB programmes, you can find a sizeable number of
schools offering IB Diploma Programme (IBDP).

12. School system has a major impact on kids growth, so it should be the important
aspect for parents to know about the right schooling system.
