Since opening its doors in 1979, in Al Garhoud, Dubai, Al Mawakeb Al Garhoud has aimed to provide, in a complex and rapidly changing world, an excellent education in a caring and respectful environment dedicated to the well-being and happiness of all students. At Al Mawakeb, we are convinced that every human being is valuable and deserves the opportunity for self-realization and self-fulfillment. We are committed to providing high-quality education and applying a distributed leadership model that will encourage our students to embrace accountability, self-reliance, and teamwork in their daily lives. 

We aim to work with parents, students, teachers, and other stakeholders to provide all students with a caring, sustainable, and inclusive learning environment in which collaboration, innovation, talent, and critical thinking are valued and encouraged, thus empowering children to achieve their fullest potential. We are committed to developing their 21st-century skills and building students to become well-rounded, goal-driven, and holistic individuals who are advocates of multiculturalism and are capable of solving global, local, and environmental issues. We will challenge students to take personal responsibility for their learning and to apply their learning to a diverse and changing world.
