Our Mission

FUELING SUCCESS
INSPIRING FUTURES

At Al Ittihad Private Schools, we are dedicated to inspiring and empowering all students through sustainable, innovative education. Our commitment is to foster their holistic development, instill essential 21st-century skills, promote lifelong learning, and empower them to excel academically. Additionally, we prioritize creating an inclusive environment where every student feels valued, respected, and supported as they grow into active, responsible heritage guardians and global citizens.

Our Story

Al Ittihad Private Schools trace their roots back to the 1970s, when Sheikh Rashid Bin Saeed Al Maktoum, the founder of Dubai, established the first school with a vision to deliver high-quality education that honors Emirati heritage while embracing a global outlook. Building on this strong foundation, Al Ittihad Private School – Jumeirah opened in 1998 as the second branch in the network.
From the beginning, INPS–Jumeirah has remained committed to preserving cultural values, fostering academic excellence, and nurturing a sense of identity and purpose in its students. The school has grown into a dynamic learning community, licensed from Pre-KG to Grade 12, offering a rigorous American curriculum that promotes “A Generation of Heritage Guardians and Global Thinkers.”
With a focus on 21st-century skills and aligned with the UAE Centennial 2071 vision, the school continues to empower learners to meet challenges, contribute meaningfully to their communities, and succeed in an evolving world.
