Who it’s for

Teachers from India, Pakistan, the Philippines, Africa, the UK and elsewhere applying to UAE schools, and teachers already in the UAE who want a better school.

Made by Aditya: a Physics teacher in Abu Dhabi, former school inspector and hiring panelist.

School information was gathered from public sources (KHDA, ADEK, SPEA and school websites) and checked in October 2026. Always confirm details with the school. This kit doesn’t guarantee a job, and real UAE schools never charge teachers to apply.
