THREE SCHOOLS, TWO SITES, ONE JESS
Director's Welcome
A warm welcome to Jumeirah English Speaking School affectionately known as JESS. We are a top British International school based in Dubai offering an outstanding educational journey for boys and girls aged 3 to 18 years old.
We have three schools, on two sites, that form one united JESS, and we work together to offer every one of our international students exceptionally high academics, a nurturing upbringing and a sense of belonging, alongside a deeply rooted vision.

An Educational Journey
We know families that choose a JESS education, enable their children to discover a love of learning that will ensure they can make a difference in the world.
JESS has been educating boys and girls from 3-18 years of age since 1976. Our staff and students from over 70 different countries form a thriving community that builds cultural connections based on respect and a sense of belonging both inside and outside the classroom.
The JESS educational journey has been rated ‘outstanding’ by the KHDA for many years and we are recognised as a world leader in international education.
Parents choosing Early Years and Primary Learning can choose from two campuses: JESS Jumeirah –the first JESS School built in 1976 in Al Safa, or JESS Arabian Ranches – built in 2005 within the Arabian Ranches community in Dubailand.
Our Secondary and Sixth Form Learning is all on one site at Arabian Ranches allowing your child to start at 11 years of age and finish at age 18 to choose their journey after school.
