Dubai English Speaking College is part of the oldest British school in Dubai; Dubai English Speaking School (DESS). Our secondary school was established in 2005 (originally located at the Oud Metha site of DESS) to meet the needs of our parents and their children requiring continuing British education up to Year 13. Under Founding Headteacher, Peter Daly, DESC opened with just 35 Year 7 students and has grown gradually. The College is now thriving with over 1200 students in Years 7 to 13, has an excellent reputation and, together with DESS, numbers over 2000 students.
