Fees by grade
Every grade The English College Dubai L.L.C publishes a KHDA-approved fee for, read straight from our committed KHDA dataset. A grade the school does not offer is not listed — it is not shown as zero, and a zero is never shown as free. Figures are the annual tuition fee only; registration, books, uniform, transport and activities are charged separately.
