About Arab Unity School

Arab Unity School (AUS) is a private school, established in 1975 by Mrs. Zainab A Taher, a qualified and veteran educationalist, active in the field of education since 1963. The school that began with fifteen students in a small apartment, when Dubai was a fraction of the size it is today, has grown to be one of the most prestigious schools in the Emirate.

The school follows Early Years Foundation Stage, the National Curriculum of England for Years 1-9 in preparation for IGCSE Cambridge International Examinations and both A Levels and BTEC Diplomas across Key Stages 4 and 5.

Arab Unity is one of Dubai oldest schools, reaching its 50th Birthday in 2025 and its alumni have achieved success within Dubai and farther afield. As an ‘affordable school’, we offer what is arguably the best-value UK education in the Emirate, with fees kept deliberately within the range of those families of modest financial means. This vision, originating within Mrs Taher and now continued proudly on by the Founder’s daughter, engenders a deep loyalty and sense of service amongst our staff.

AUS is a school, therefore, where values and character are deeply appreciated alongside academic excellence and the personal best achievement of every child. Anyone who shares this sense of service and vision for inclusive education is welcome to apply to join us in this mission.
