Is Homeschooling Legal in the UAE?
Homeschooling is a legal and increasingly popular option in the UAE. Many expatriate families choose it as a flexible, values-aligned alternative to traditional schooling. For many parents, it also offers a more affordable option compared with international British private schools, where fees can be very high.
At Asra Hub, we proudly support families across the Emirates. Our students have successfully completed IGCSE examinations and progressed to colleges and universities. For expatriate families, studying through an online school that prepares students for internationally recognised Pearson Edexcel qualifications means their certificates are widely accepted by universities around the world and in their home countries.
