About Dubai British School, Jumeira
Dubai British School Jumeira is set to open its doors in September 2024. One of the Dubai British School group of schools, DBS Jumeira will be a state-of-the-art, EYFS to Year 13, British Curriculum School in the heart of Dubai’s Jumeirah district. Under the shared Dubai British School’s vision of Enjoy, Aspire, Achieve, we provide the facilities, resources and inspirational educational experiences, for students to enjoy their time at school and achieve their goals.
At DBS Jumeira, learning for all is a critical component of the school and, as such, teachers at the school will be expected to commit to their learning alongside that of the students they serve. Founding a state-of-the-art new school is an enriching experience but demands exceptional cognitive agility, adaptability, collaboration and dedication.
At DBS Jumeira, we care deeply about the young people in our care and believe that students can only succeed as learners when they are supported with their physical, emotional and mental well-being. We are a community school that holds the connections and relationships with families at our core and this begins with quality teachers and leaders.
