Welcome to The City School International Dubai

The City School International stems from the renowned ‘City School’s’ establishments which was initially founded in 1978 originating from Pakistan and now based in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Philippines, and Bangladesh. We are even more proud to state that The City School International is home to multiple nationalities and over 700 students and counting as well as a well-proven track record of success in both academic and extra-curricular activities.

Our ‘Sixth Form’ , (Years 12 – 13) offers a wide range of courses that prepare students for further education, training, and employment. The students will be expected to select at least 3 to a maximum of 4 AS subjects which will be carried forward to their second year. However, the students can opt for 3 and keep 3 or opt for 4 and keep a total of 4 in year 13. Moreover, the ability to keep 4 subjects in both years will give them an opportunity to choose from a wide range of universities within different disciplines enabling them to make the right career choice for them.

The Sixth Form Curriculum is enriched by a robust Future Leader Enrichment Programme, academic and careers education and a programme of learning that develops 21st century skills. The school is an approved center for international examination board CAIE (Cambridge Assessment International Education) and also gained a Fellowship status, a prestigious award for continuing excellence in examination results, with CAIE.

It has been an honour for us to be able to provide the A-Level’s programme at The City School International for the first time in 2021 We understand that a large percentage of our students in the past have carried on to higher education through other various avenues at a time where we had not been able to. Now, we are not only preparing them but helping them choose from the most common university pathways which are the UK, Canadian, American, Australian and UAE based universities. Our detailed student enrichment programme designed by TCSI will prepare students for various application procedures inhouse. Information sessions provided by the TCSI school council and the head of sixth form will be conducted throughout the year as well as visiting guest speakers from various local and international institutions. An annual Careers Fair will be organised at the school campus, which will give students a further opportunity to meet and discuss future options/plans with representatives from local and international universities.

The City School International will endeavor to offer a unique international learning experience for students to help them become independent citizens and help them cope for higher studies whether they will stay local or travel abroad. Its education programme maintains a holistic perspective and is based on the principles of Integrity, Compassion, Innovation, Leadership and Global Citizenship.
