KHDA Inspection 2024
SchoolWise note
Rated Good for 8 consecutive inspections since 2014. Stable performance; check individual indicators for areas of particular strength.
Dar Al Marefa Private School in Al Khwaneej First has been rated Good by KHDA in its most recent 2024 inspection, meaning inspectors found the school to be performing at a solid and satisfactory standard across key areas of education. The school has maintained a stable Good rating consistently since at least 2017, across five inspection cycles, which signals that parents can expect a reliably steady educational environment rather than one experiencing significant ups or downs. For parents considering this IB-curriculum school for children from Pre Primary through to Grade 12, the long-term consistency is reassuring, though those seeking an Outstanding-rated institution may wish to compare options, as the school has not yet progressed beyond the Good band despite multiple inspection opportunities.
