- Contacting the school
- Ask us and we will ask them
We hold this school's details and put questions to it for parents - fees for a year group, whether there is a place, what happens next. KHDA's own page for the school, linked below, carries its published contact details if you would rather go direct.

How far is this from another school? What the bus costs
If your children may end up at different schools, the distance that decides your mornings is the one between them, not from home to each.
In context
Its mid-range fee is about 13 per cent above the median for Indian (CBSE/ICSE) schools in this guide (AED 17,471). It is one of 85 schools in this guide currently rated Good. As a CBSE school, its academic year runs April to March - plan relocation timing around this.
These comparisons are computed from the verified data in this register, not editorial opinion.
What the inspectors said
Paraphrased from the last full DSIB inspection we could verify (2023-24 cycle) and its published record - read the complete report on the official KHDA directory. These findings are from the 2023-24 cycle and are now more than two years old. Leadership, staffing and provision can change substantially in that time - see the note below on why every rating in Dubai is older than it looks.
Strengths the inspectors named:
- Good from KHDA, reflecting consistent standards in student achievement, teaching quality and leadership.
- Affordable CBSE from KG1 to Grade 12 at roughly AED 16,100 to 23,300 - within the accessible segment of Indian schools in Dubai, in Al Khabisi, Al Qusais.
What they asked the school to improve:
- Good is the regulator’s benchmark rather than its ceiling - ask what the current improvement plan funds and who owns it.
- We hold less verified detail on this school than on most in this register: we have not established enrolment, teacher numbers or detailed inspection findings from sources we trust, and have not estimated them.
- Read the full report on the KHDA directory, and treat a visit and direct questions to leaders as essential.
Inclusion (students of determination): Good in KHDA’s directory and its published 2023-24 ratings table, matching the school’s overall judgement. Underneath that band, inspectors judged curriculum adaptation for students of determination and for gifted learners at only Acceptable across every phase, in a school otherwise improving quickly - a family whose child needs adapted lessons should ask exactly what has changed since the inspection. See the special educational needs guide for the questions to ask on a visit.
Inspector summaries are being added school by school as each report is read - 221 of 230 so far, dated per cycle, never invented. A school without a summary yet is unread, not unjudged.

What we don't know about this school
Every other page on this site tells you what we have verified. This one tells you what we have not, because a register you cannot calibrate is worth less than one you can. We do not currently hold:
- whether it is co-educational, boys or girls
- how many children are on roll
- its facilities - sports, arts, science, library
- published exam results or university destinations
- what registration, transport, uniform and meals add to the fee
- the year it opened - the figure we held was wrong on every school we checked
None of it is guessed or filled in from a similar school. Ask for any of it using the form below and it moves up the queue - requests are how we decide what to collect next.
Ask this school a question - we'll do the asking
Tell us the year group, and we will ask Pearl Wisdom School what it costs, whether there is a place, and what the next step is. Then we send you what they say. Every answer we get is also checked into this school's record, so the next parent finds it already here.
Your details stay with us. We contact the school ourselves, and we do not pass your name or address to them, or to any agent, unless you ask us to. No school pays to appear in this guide, and none can pay to change what it says.
