SISD offers full and weekly boarding options to girls and boys ages 11-18. The newly furnished boarding houses have four floors each, with 14 rooms and En-suite bathrooms in each for a total capacity of 100 students per house. Boarders are offered outstanding levels of pastoral care, reflecting our commitment to creating a genuine home away from home. Every boarding house has its own carefully selected staff, who care for the boarder’s welfare and practical needs. The staff live alongside the boarders and they are always on hand to offer support, guidance and advice, along with the support of the school’s fully equipped medical Centre. Boarders follow a structured routine which encourages them to get the most out of their time, homework and tutoring sessions are supervised with help and support given when necessary. Full boarders enjoy a range of enthralling evening and weekend activities in Dubai, that make the most of being located in such a vibrant and dynamic city.
