KHDA Inspection 2024
SchoolWise note
Rated Acceptable for 13 consecutive inspections since 2010. Stable performance; check individual indicators for areas of particular strength.
Dubai Carmel School in Al Qusais First has received an Acceptable rating from KHDA in its most recent 2024 inspection, indicating that the school meets basic educational standards but has not yet reached the higher levels of Good or Outstanding. The school's rating has remained consistently Acceptable across all inspections dating back to 2018, suggesting a stable but plateaued performance that has not shown measurable improvement over several years. Parents considering this British curriculum school for children from FS1 to Year 13 should be aware that while the school offers a full educational journey from early years through to sixth form, the unchanged rating over five inspection cycles may prompt them to ask the school directly about its plans for improvement and enhancement of student outcomes.
