As required by the UAE’s Ministry of Education, 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 1 and upwards at JBS must provide a TC, 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 Grade 1 must provide a TC. Our Admissions Team are happy to assist you with this.
Please see below the stamp and signature requirements as per country of origin:
All transfer certificates should be in English, typed, on the school letterhead, stamped and sealed.
| Location | Attestation required by Ministry of Education |
|---|---|
| Another emirate in the UAE or any GCC country | School principal’s signature and school stamp Attestation by the Educational Authority in that Emirate or attestation by the Ministry of Education in the GCC country |
| North America, Western Europe, and Australia | Signature of the principal and stamp of the school. |
