King’s College School Wimbledon to Open 1st UAE Campus on Fahid Island
The British school will bring its K–12 curriculum to a new waterfront campus on Abu Dhabi’s luxury island development in 2028.
One of the UK’s most prestigious schools, King’s College School Wimbledon, is heading to Abu Dhabi. The British institution will open its first UAE campus on Fahid Island, a new high-end development being built off the coast of the capital. The school is expected to open in September 2028, with space for around 2,200 students from kindergarten to year 13.
The campus will be part of Fahid Island’s wider development, which includes luxury homes, resorts, and beachfront facilities. The school will sit within a master-planned community being developed by Aldar Properties.
The move is part of a partnership between Aldar Education and King’s College School, marking the latter’s first entry into the Gulf region following previous expansions into China and Thailand. The announcement adds to a growing number of high-profile UK schools setting up in the region, including Harrow and Brighton College.
