Diyafah International School, Abu Dhabi builds on the 40+ years of legacy of Dubai's Al Diyafah High School.
AL DIYAFAH HIGH SCHOOL, DUBAI
Al Diyafah High School was founded in 1982, by the late Mrs. Winnie D'Cunha. It started as a Nursery, with just 2 children in a small villa located on Al Diyafah Street, in Dubai. To accommodate the growing numbers, the school moved to a new campus in 2001, where Al Diyafah High School is presently located.
Since its inception in 1982, the Diyafah brand has evolved to be a leader in holistic education with its outstanding curriculum combined with learning against multiple disciplines. The school now has over 1,600 students from several nationalities, all studying together as one big family. A very successful senior school was started to allow the students to continue their studies, offering a wide range of subjects from Science, Commerce and Humanities streams.
