Best Schools in Abu Dhabi, ranked by ADEC

Private schools in Abu Dhabi are inspected about once every two years. This academic year was the first time they were examined under new performance standards from the Ministry of Education’s school inspection framework, which unified the metrics and grading system used to evaluate all schools.
Under the new framework, schools are judged on a six-level scale: outstanding, very good, good, acceptable, weak and very weak. Adec has adjusted the scale to group schools by bands. Schools that fall in Band A are outstanding, very good and good; Band B is for acceptable schools; and Band C covers weak and very weak schools.
Adec said 112 private schools will be inspected this academic year, including 44 that were audited in term two, between January and March, and 27 that are undergoing inspections.
In all, there are 186 private schools providing education to about 236,000 pupils across the emirate.
