    Hi,
    I am planning to change my DS school to the millennium dubai for grade 1.Please share your review.I know they follow icbse curriculum.I heard from some of my friends that icbse schools don't use typical writing format of learning and mostly all activities are online based. is that so?The kids spelling skills are poor because of that.Also saw some reviews about the school that they focus more on extra curricular activities like singing and dancing.How good are they in academics compared to other cbse schools?am confused..please help..

    Hi, we just finished paying the admission fees to secure a seat for both my sons. My husband visited the school multiple times and found it to be very good. They also require good marks to be eligible for admission and even interviewed my 10 year old via telephone, so it seemed like they concentrate more on academics than extra-curriculars.

    Oh really ? I had no idea... Will they be following just CBSE coming year? I think that might be their only option. Are you already in Dubai Bhagya? What grade did you admit your child in?

    I am still in India.. my husband is there and has enrolled them. I was looking to move in ten days but itseems the school needs the TC issue date to be before the date of entry into the country. We were planning to have the school issue it in march and courier it to us. They are saying it's a KHDA requirement but I'm not sure of that.
    We have rented and apartment in JBR.
