The Al Rabeeh name is synonymous throughout the city with quality education and pastoral care since 1979. It is a well-established primary school with an excellent reputation amongst the community of Abu Dhabi. Year-on-year growth in numbers is testimony to the success of dedicated teaching staff alongside supportive and effective Senior and Middle Leaders.

Al Rabeeh is a founding school of an expanding group of schools and academies, within the Royal Group that are committed to being the best and most sought-after providers of Education in the Emirate.

Happy students fill the spaces of Al Rabeeh School, whilst enthused educators encourage, challenge, and engage our students in a curriculum that is reflective of excellence.
