How would you rate The Aquila School?
We are so happy with this school. From day one, the teachers and management have shown how much they truly care about the children. What I love most is the personal approach. They really get to know each child, their strengths and their needs, and help them grow in the best way. Our kids actually enjoy going to school every day, which says a lot. The teachers are kind, supportive, and approachable, and the management team is just as amazing. The school is also very inclusive. Children from all backgrounds are welcomed and celebrated, and the staff is just as diverse, which makes the whole environment feel warm and respectful. It鈥檚 not easy to find a school where kids feel happy, inspired, and cared for, but this one really does it. I鈥檓 so grateful my children are here.
The school provides an excellent academic strategy, leading to motivating the kids and push them outside the box.
My daughters are super happy in the school. We are very happy there and i personally recommend The Aquila to all my friends.
My children are happy since they join Aquila school.
Amazing school! Amazing learning! The school of choice where pupils have many opportunities to choose their own learning and take ownership.
This is a unique school in Dubai, that offers a unique child led enquiry based education. My children are thriving at this amazing school!

I鈥檓 surprised to see some low stars here. It鈥檚 really, really hard to understand the reason. The Aquila School is going to be one of the best schools in Dubai, I strongly believe. The way they approach to family, to student and to education is inspiring. And no need to tell about the outstanding reputation of the staff!

Just met with the principal who is lovely. Seems like a refreshing alternative for the area. Part of the school is opening in April so I'm really keen to see what it looks like!
