Transfer Certificate Guidelines

A valid Transfer Certificate must include the student’s full name, date of birth, admission and leaving dates, last class attended, promotion status to the next grade, and confirmation that all dues have been cleared. The certificate should be signed and stamped by the issuing school’s authorised signatory, and where applicable, attested by the relevant education authority (such as KHDA in Dubai).

Students transferring from schools within the UAE or other GCC countries must submit an original Transfer Certificate attested by the KHDA (or the respective local education authority). Along with the TC, parents are required to provide the student’s academic transcripts, a copy of the passport and Emirates ID, and immunisation records. Our admissions team will guide families through the KHDA transfer process to ensure a smooth transition.

For students joining from schools outside the GCC, the Transfer Certificate must be attested by the relevant education ministry or embassy in the country of origin, followed by attestation from the UAE Embassy and the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Academic records should also be translated into English or Arabic if issued in another language. Our admissions office can advise on the specific attestation requirements based on the student’s home country.

Existing Student Re-Registration

To guarantee a seat for the upcoming academic year, current students must re-register by paying a non-refundable deposit of 5% of the tuition fee by the specified deadline.
