Dubai National School – Al Twar is fully accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEAS&C) through its Commission on International Education (CIE). The school has held this prestigious accreditation since May 2012, demonstrating its commitment to high-quality education and continuous improvement.
The NEAS&C accreditation process involves regular self-study, external peer reviews, and ongoing institutional reflection. It confirms that the school meets or exceeds internationally recognized standards in teaching, learning, and operations. This accreditation also ensures that DNS Al Twar’s High School Diplomas are recognized for college and university admissions both locally and internationally.
The school’s most recent re-accreditation was granted in July 2022, following an External Review Visit (ERV) conducted in May 2022 under the NEAS&C ACE Protocol. This reaffirmed DNS Al Twar’s dedication to academic excellence, institutional integrity, and the holistic development of every student.
In line with the UAE’s educational framework, Dubai National School Al Twar adheres to the Ministry of Education curriculum for Arabic Language, Islamic Education, and Social Studies. These subjects play a vital role in preserving the national identity, promoting moral and cultural values, and strengthening students’ understanding of the UAE’s history, heritage, and societal principles.
By integrating the Ministry’s curriculum, DNS Al Twar ensures that students remain connected to their roots while developing a strong sense of citizenship and respect for the nation’s values. All other subjects follow U.S. educational standards, offering students a comprehensive and well-rounded learning experience. This combination equips students with both a deep appreciation for their cultural heritage and the skills needed to thrive in a global, 21st-century environment.
