Welcome to Jebel Ali School
It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to our school; one of Dubai’s happiest, oldest, and most successful schools. We opened our doors for the first time in September 1977 to provide education for the children of expatriate workers involved in the construction of Jebel Ali port. From that small beginning on a warm September day, Jebel Ali School has grown into the wonderful place it is today. Having moved in 2016 to our new Damac Hills home and a brand-new, purpose-built campus, JAS, as its fondly known, continues to connect its rich and successful past with Dubai, and the UAE’s, dynamic and exciting future.
Mr. Simon Jodrell, Principal
We are incredibly proud of our reputation for successfully balancing care, well-being, and happiness with excellent academic achievement. As we have grown into a school for students from Foundation Stage to Year 13, we have seamlessly imbued our unique ethos, tradition and heritage, ensuring that all of our students receive the highest standards of education, and that there is a pathway for all. It is a school built on genuine care, respect, and success where students progress and achieve academically, and importantly where they will be happy and ultimately thrive and flourish.
With an enviable reputation for being a much-loved community school centred around the ethos that our students never stop believing that better is always possible. The school is proudly inclusive with a community who take pride in celebrating individuality. A musical solo is praised as warmly as an A* grade, a wonderful piece of artwork or sporting brilliance is celebrated as much as entrance to a world class university. Our students leave us with confidence, strong interpersonal skills and the adaptability, resilience and understanding to be successful in the world of both today and tomorrow.
At the heart of all that we do is the school’s mission and vision to create a community who never stop believing that better is always possible.
