As a requirement by the United Arab Emirates’ Ministry of Education and for us to be able to register your child legally with the Ministry/KHDA, it is mandatory that we receive a Transfer Certificate (TC) from your child’s current school. Registration at any school in Dubai without a TC is not possible.
All children entering Grade 2 and upwards at American Academy for Girls must provide a Transfer Certificate, regardless of the country and educational curriculum they are coming from.
All children coming from a licensed school in Dubai OR a school outside of Dubai into Year 1 must provide an online Transfer Certificate. Our Admissions Team will be happy to assist with this.
