Sunmarke School, Dubai | Fees, Address, Admission, Vacancies, Reviews & More

Good school to send your children to. KHDA rating is outstanding, which very few schools in the vicinity have. The overall development of children is taken care of with good sports facilities and overall good teachers. Some minor complaints from parents are always present and are necessary for the school to improvise; overall, the school is a complete package and should be acknowledged. Love the association.

Hi everyone,

My experience at this school was very difficult. I was surprised by the thinking and behavior of some teachers!

I don’t want to name the teachers in this review, but I want to share that I enrolled and withdrew my son in only three weeks! You can imagine.

The principal is a kind person, but unfortunately, you have to deal with uncontrollable teachers and staff!

Don’t be impressed by the school’s advertisements and the announced results.

I enrolled my two children in this school for the current academic year, influenced by the school’s high rating from the KHDA, its impressive published results, and positive reviews. Initially, I believed the school was a commendable choice. However, over time, I noticed that the school has exceeded its annual student intake capacity by a significant margin. It became apparent that the school’s events, activities, and initiatives seem to be predominantly profit-driven.

Unfortunately, I have not been able to discuss my daughter’s English report with her teacher due to their constant unavailability. The school provides limited opportunities for parental engagement. Additionally, there appears to be an inadequate support system within the school to properly evaluate students’ academic progress.

As a result, I have resorted to external online tutoring for my daughter in mathematics and science because the teaching approach in school seems to be focused on pushing through the material without ensuring students’ comprehension.

Despite the substantial tuition fees—which one would expect to cover quality education—the leadership and support staff do not seem to be as supportive as necessary. Moreover, the school bus journey is excessively long, taking 90 minutes to cover a 14 km distance.

Communication with the school is frustratingly poor. At this juncture, I am contemplating whether transferring my children to another school would be beneficial or detrimental to them. It is not an ideal situation to consider mid-year, and I regret having to make such a consideration.

I am voicing these concerns to raise awareness among fellow parents and to prompt oversight by educational authorities. It is crucial to address these issues for the betterment of the school’s environment and educational standards.

International Day is the best day of the academic year. We all wait for it. The school does a great job of empowering kids and engaging parents to create a fantastic community.

Two months in Dubai and we made the best choice for our daughter’s school. So happy – compared to schools in Europe, there is a big difference. We are so happy with all the teachers at the school.

A great school with many facilities for my 3-year-old. Most importantly, it has a very supportive group of teachers who use positive teaching methods to help shape our daughter’s best characteristics. The school provides good support for parents new to the school and families new to Dubai with numerous organized programs.

I have three children at Sunmarke School, all of whom love it. My wife and I find the school not just academically excellent, but also a kind and friendly environment. We are especially impressed by the teachers in the Early Years Foundation Stage section of the school, who have managed to introduce our children to the school environment in a gentle and caring fashion.
