Introduction

Founded in 1982, Fujairah Private Academy is a fee-paying, co-educational day school serving students aged 4 to 18. Owned by the Government of Fujairah under the patronage of His Highness Shaikh Hamad Bin Mohammed Al Sharqi, it is unique for its student body comprising 85% UAE nationals who receive a British education in a bilingual setting. The school follows the National Curriculum of England and Wales, preparing pupils for Cambridge and Edexcel GCSE, AS, and A2 level examinations, alongside the Thanawa Ama equivalency. For primary students, the school uses the specialized 'Read Write Inc.' literacy program. French is introduced as a mandatory subject from Year 4 onwards. Campus physical amenities include a swimming pool, a separate training pool, a multi-purpose sports hall, football pitches, and basketball courts. Instruction is delivered in English by qualified teachers, the majority of whom are British-trained, while Arabic staff conduct dedicated Arabic and Islamic Studies lessons.

Fees

Annual tuition at Fujairah Private Academy ranges from AED 23,850 to AED 42,000 for 2026/27.

Application / Seat‑reservation fee
- A seat‑reservation (acceptance/registration) payment of AED 2,000 is required when an offer of admission is accepted to secure the pupil's place.

Tuition fees (annual guidance and year‑band indications)
- Published third‑party listings indicate annual tuition at Fujairah Private Academy ranges approximately from AED 23,850 to AED 42,000 per year, with the lower figure associated with early years and the higher figure associated with the senior/IGCSE/A‑Level years. This range is the only public, school‑level tuition detail found.
- No publicly available, itemised breakdown showing exact tuition by individual year group (for example KG1, KG2, Year 1, Year 2 … Year 12) or per‑term instalments for the 2026/27 academic year was located.

Per‑term amounts and billing schedule
- A specific per‑term fee schedule and firm billing dates for Fujairah Private Academy were not publicly available in the documentation found. There is no authoritative, published term‑by‑term invoice schedule located for the 2026/27 or 2025/26 academic year. Parents should expect that the school issues invoices and requires payment at the start of the academic year or by term, but the school's exact billing schedule and due dates were not published in the sources reviewed.

Boarding
- Fujairah Private Academy operates as a day school; no boarding provision or boarding fees apply.

Other mandatory or typical additional costs
- School‑level summaries indicate that additional charges commonly applied at this school include uniforms, books and stationery, transport (school bus) where used, examination fees and optional extracurricular/activity charges; however, no definitive published price list for these specific items at Fujairah Private Academy was found.
- A school circular found among the school's public documents shows example excursion charges (for one Year‑group trip the stated transport/entrance fee was AED 80), demonstrating that individual trip charges are itemised separately when they occur.

Refund information
- No published, school‑specific refund policy for registration, seat reservation, tuition or other fees for the 2026/27 (or 2025/26) academic year was located in the public materials reviewed. The seat‑reservation payment is described in public listings as the amount required to secure a place; no public statement confirming full or partial refundability was found.

Fee payment options
- No definitive, school‑specific list of accepted payment methods for Fujairah Private Academy (for example bank transfer, credit/debit card, cheque or online parent portal) was located in the publicly available materials reviewed. General practice across private schools in the UAE is to accept bank transfer, card and cheque, but Fujairah Private Academy's published confirmation of accepted payment channels was not discovered.

Brief summary of findings and gaps
- Publicly available sources consistently report a seat‑reservation payment of AED 2,000 and give an annual tuition range of approximately AED 23,850–AED 42,000.
- The school's live site content was limited (site under maintenance) and no official, itemised fee schedule (per year group and per term) for 2026/27 or 2025/26 was located in the public documents reviewed; therefore exact per‑grade and per‑term tuition figures, the formal billing dates, official refund terms and the school's accepted payment methods could not be confirmed from the available materials.
