Father of Rozana
It has honestly been a wonderful experience for us at Glendale for both my daughter Rozana and us. We love that at Glendale it feels like we are part of a big family. This is Rozana’s first school experience in Dubai and we are elated to see her so happy at Glendale. When she joined in September 2023, she could hardly speak English and now she is flourishing. A big thank you to the wonderful Principal and teachers

Mother of Nandini
My experience at Glendale has been nothing short of fantastic. My daughter Nandini came to this school from the CBSE curriculum but the school made sure it was a smooth transition to the British curriculum for her. Nandini loves her school, her friends and her teachers. She likes the way subjects are being taught and she is easily able to grasp it. At Glendale, there is also a lot of diversity and Nandini enjoys interacting and making new friends with kids from different nationalities.
