Obtaining secondary education in the UAE is mandatory for both locals and residents. The academic year in such educational institutions lasts 9 months, from September to June. Free education is possible for citizens of the country, while residents and their children can study only for a fee.
Therefore, many families choose private institutions that offer education in different languages, including Russian. Some educational institutions conduct the learning process according to the programs of European countries, and some - according to the Russian ones. The cost of the school year depends on many factors, including the prestige of the school and the age of the child.
If necessary, a child's enrollment can be approved at any time of the school year. Almost all educational institutions require testing in order to determine the level of knowledge.
