About The Pearl Academy Abu Dhabi
Pearl British Academy was founded by Aldar Academies in 2007, and while it is a relatively large school, it has retained the small-school ethos of friendliness, protection, care and nurturing for all students. The school follows the National Curriculum for England together with its assessments and caters for students between the ages of 3 and 11.
