Entrance Procedure

Your first step to Dubai Modern Education School

Thank you for your interest in our school. We are delighted to share our school community with you, and our website is a great place to start to explore all that DMES offers.

In the first instance, parents who are considering Dubai Modern Education School for their child can arrange to visit and meet the School Executive Principal, MOE Head of School, US Head of School and take a tour of the school.

Dubai Modern Education School is a selective school which means our admissions process does involve entrance tests.

School Executive Principal will also be available for appointments to meet parents and students for interviews and to arrange tours.

Test & Placement

Following this visit, students entering Grades 3-12 will be required to undertake the international MAP test at a time and date scheduled at and by the school. This is an online test that provides the school and parent with an understanding of the level at which the student is at in English, Math and Science. Separate assessment procedures are undertaken by the KG to 4 school. These students will have an informal assessment which may include reading, writing, arithmetic and non-verbal reasoning.

The final stage in this process is the registration of the student. Once a contract has been signed and a deposit payment made, a student’s place will be guaranteed.

Student Transfer

Students who are transferring form another school are required to provide the most recent previous school reports outlining academic levels and behavior. This allows us to determine whether we can meet a student’s educational and pastoral needs.

Important Admission Dates

Entry to Dubai Modern Education School starts ahead of school academic year almost 3 to 4 months before in spring. In certain circumstances, we do accept applications at other times during the academic year.
