Ash Mount School

Ash Mount School opens in August 2026 in Mudon; built to be at the centre of the community. We are creating a happy, purposeful school that families can trust. Our vision is clear: learn with purpose, live with compassion, lead with courage.

People First
Great schools are made by great people. We are appointing leaders, teachers, and staff who are expert, kind, and ambitious for every child; we support them with induction, coaching, and ongoing training. Across our Interstar Advisory Services family, schools share curriculum, moderation, and coaching so high standards are consistent.

Learning and Teaching
Your child’s learning will be rich, rigorous, and relevant. We combine strong standards of the curriculum based on a broad international programme underpinned with our experience of the English National Curriculum across inquiry, languages, sciences, design, digital literacy, arts, and sport; assessment is clear and timely; support and stretch are personalised.

A Campus for Learning and Community
Our purpose built campus is a learning landscape; built to be at the centre of the community. Light filled classrooms; libraries for primary and secondary; science labs; art, design, and dance studios; a black box theatre; world class sports facilities; Wadi inspired planters for sustainable learning; prayer rooms; a wellbeing hub for quiet support; a senior common room preparing older students for life beyond school. It is a place where students, staff, and families flourish.

Working with Families
Schools thrive when they listen. You can expect open communication, clear information, and an open door; regular forums, parent talks, and community events will shape our journey together.

This is my commitment to Mudon and neighbouring communities: excellent learning and teaching; strong values; a safe, welcoming school with high standards aligned to KHDA, Dubai’s Education 33 strategy, and UAE Vision 2071.

We welcome you to Ash Mount School.

Principal’s Full Message

At Ash Mount, we deliver a curriculum grounded in an international framework, enriched by the local and global context of the UAE, and aligned with national priorities, including UAE Vision 2071. This education balances rigour with joy, inquiry with structure, and academic success with wellbeing and student voice. Every child will be challenged, supported, and celebrated, developing as inquirers, leaders, and change-makers. I have had the privilege of opening and leading schools both across the region and internationally. Each of those experiences has deepened my belief in the power of partnership: between students, staff, families, and the wider community. At Ash Mount, we are creating a culture where people are valued, voices are heard, and ideas flourish. Our open-door philosophy reflects our commitment to being a school where relationships come first.

Ash Mount School is proudly part of the Interstar family of schools — a group recognised for excellence, innovation, and a strong commitment to the communities they serve. Ash Mount builds on that legacy while creating something distinctly its own: a school with heart, ambition, and a bold sense of purpose.

Thank you for considering Ash Mount School. We look forward to welcoming you and your family as we shape something extraordinary together.
