Opened in September 2017, NLCS Dubai is a branch of the highly successful North London Collegiate School, based in London, UK. Our London school is renowned for its academic results, having consistently achieved the best IB Diploma results in the UK for the past 12 years, and remaining within the top 5 schools in the country for GCSE and A-Level results over the past 15 years – frequently first. Together with our first 'branch'​ school, NLCS Jeju, in South Korea, we form a unique family of schools, with a further campus set to open in Singapore in the next two years. Our ethos at NLCS Dubai mirrors that of NLCS (UK). We believe that there should be no ceilings to what a student can achieve. We never ‘label’ a student and nobody is ever written off. We seek passionate subject teachers, who are able to light the flame of enthusiasm in every student and who believe in pastoral care that values and supports all students – ‘everyone matters’. NLCS Dubai is located in the Sobha Hartland development at Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum City, just three kilometres from the Burj Khalifa. NLCS Dubai is an authorised IB World School, delivering an International Baccalaureate (IB) education. The School offers the Primary Years Programme (PYP), Middle Years Programme (MYP) and the Diploma Programme (DP).
