How would you rate Cambridge International School (CIS)?
The quality of education here is at best mediocre, the hiring standards they set for teachers may seem high, but by the teachers ive seen they hire from experience rather than quality and actual attention to detail within the learning experience. the facilities are good but the facilitation of such is poor and barely managed, this school is not fit for the name "Cambridge" it is misleading considering the absolute horrible experience this school offers
One star is already too much. Wish I could take it away from them. How come all the reviews are either 1* or 5* its obvious the 5* reviews are BOUGHT !! Shame on the school they don't deserve to be classed as an Educational Institution if judged from their AS and A level Results. The teaching is diabolical. The teachers constantly miss classes. The spec is not covered. What other explanation is there for shameful results of most of the pupils. Dubai Municipality should check this school again and try to understand why whole class of pupils have failed. Those that didn't fail have results that are equivalent to failure. Most of the positive comments are from the teachers that work in the school. The negative comments are from the students themselves. Sell Education do not SCAM people in the name of Education!
It was hell when I went there :(
I am a student, and this was my experience. The teachers there are the worst. they just play yt videos and they will mind their own business by doing something in their devices. If they are teaching, they won't even care if the students are paying attention to them. The books are costly and has low-quality. The staff will say this school is coming with good development and better skills, but it is the exact opposite.

Honestly, a pretty decent deal. Obviously nothing compared to schools like Wellington and the sort though I must say being the first Gems school in Dubai it held a pretty high standard back in its day which the new principal, Lachlan MacKinnon, has been working a great deal to restore back to the modern standard both visually and academically which I have to say I GREATLY appreciate. Facilities are well rounded (consistent tables and chairs as of this year!), though teachers can be a bit of a hit or miss around each department. From personal experience, the arts and drama department is particularly phenomenal in student performances as well all student-teacher relationships. This school had its shaky moments in the past but holds great history (first to bring BTEC in) and is slowly building into the perfect middle-ground school, would recommend depending on your budget.

One of my favourite school campuses. I have studied here for 8 years and this is my ninth. If you are searching for an IGCSE school, this is the way to go it is also one's bang for a buck so, make sure you check it out. By the way this is coming from a current student of this school. I love this school and it is like a second home for me!!!! The teachers are also very pally but, in the meantime, strict to ensure student development.

Terrible school. My kids spent two of their worst schools years there. I would never recommend it to anyone. I was expecting so much more from them, unfortunately it turns out that they do not stand up to their reputation as a high quality education provider.
