New Dawn Private School stands on Street #76 in Muhaisnah 4 and runs the British curriculum. Its principal describes the school through its vision - "Nurture. Develop. Perform. Succeed." - and speaks of an inclusive, ambitious British education in which excellent teaching and high expectations go together with care and opportunity; he names the diversity of the school community separately. The school names as its values citizenship, tolerance, quality, accountability, integrity and honesty, and says it embeds them in every classroom and team. The stages run from FS1 to Year 8: the school has no senior years yet, and its 2026-27 fee scale ends at Year 8. The fee sits below the Dubai middle: the KHDA-approved figure runs from 21,500 to 25,400 dirhams, and the school's discounted price from 13,800 to 18,400, roughly a third less.

CambridgeCambridge International Education
Part of the University of Cambridge. It allows a school to teach the Cambridge programmes and to enter pupils for the exams. There are four stages and they are authorised separately: primary, lower secondary, IGCSE and A Level. If the stages are known they are named in the line below; if that line is missing, the school does not publish them, and the Cambridge registry does not show stages either - it gives only the name of the centre, the country and whether private candidates are accepted. Cambridge calls what it does registration rather than accreditation, and the network holds about ten thousand schools.
What the badge means for this school. The school is allowed to run this programme and to award its certificate. This is a confirmation of the programme, not a judgement on the school as a whole. The entry stands in the organisation's public register - anyone can check it. Which stages - from the early years programme for three-year-olds up to A-Level - this school is approved for is not stated here.

A low score here means the school does not write about this, not that the school does not have it: a school with good security and a sparse site will score low. A school can fill in its profile, and the score will be counted again.
The score is counted from 8 of the 9 criteria.Only those with checkable data count: programmes and accreditations from official registers, the fee from a published price list. Where it says "scored on the median", the school has no data and the middle of the list is put in its place, so that a gap gives no advantage. Admissions, teaching staff and reviews come in as their data arrives.
