The SAIS Group of Schools was established in 1997 in Sharjah, UAE, with the launch of Sharjah American International School. Founded by Dr. Aysha Ali Bin Sayyar and Dr. Nawaf Mohamed Fawaz, the group was created to offer families a broader range of quality educational options. Building on the success of the Sharjah campus, additional branches were opened in Dubai (2005), Umm Al Quwain (2014), and Abu Dhabi (2016).

At SAIS, we offer a rigorous American curriculum delivered within a framework that honors Islamic values and local cultural heritage. We believe that students thrive when supported by a nurturing, respectful environment that embraces both academic excellence and cultural identity.

Our mission is to meet each student’s individual needs through a challenging, holistic curriculum that fosters intellectual, emotional, and personal growth.

Professional development is a cornerstone of our commitment to excellence. Our educators continuously engage in training to stay at the forefront of innovative and effective teaching methodologies. We recognize the diverse learning styles of our students and employ differentiated instruction to ensure each learner reaches their full potential.

We place strong emphasis on family engagement and view parents as essential partners in the educational journey. Through open communication and structured opportunities for involvement, we foster a collaborative school community that supports student success.

When we had a teacher decide to take another job in mid-July, we were left with few options. Historically, it was a tough position to fill. Within 24 hours of posting the position on Schrole, we were able to offer a contract to a more-qualified educator.
