In Brief
Ajman Academy Dubai appears to be a misnomer - there is no school by this exact name. The search results point to The Lazar Group's schools in Ajman, including The Royal Academy (Indian curriculum) and The Bloomington Academy (British curriculum), which are located in Ajman, not Dubai.
The confusion likely stems from The Lazar Group's network of schools in Ajman, operating under North Point Education since 1985. The Royal Academy (TRAC) offers Indian curriculum education serving 36+ nationalities and holds the distinction of being Ajman's first Eco-Green School. The Bloomington Academy (TBAC) provides British curriculum education from KG to Grade 8+ with Pearson accreditation, and was inaugurated by the UK Consul General as Ajman's first British curriculum school.
Both schools are located in Al Hamidiya, Ajman - not Dubai - and serve families seeking alternatives to Dubai's higher-cost international schools. The group also operates The Hope English School in Sharjah, which follows the British curriculum and is expanding to Year 7 in 2025-26. The schools maintain connections with UAE leadership, including events hosted with Sheikh Abdulaziz Bin Ali Bin Rashid Al Nuaimi, and emphasize eco-friendly initiatives alongside traditional academics.
What parents value
- –Located in Ajman, offering potentially lower costs than Dubai international schools

Points of consideration
- –No actual school exists by the name 'Ajman Academy Dubai'
- –Schools are located in Ajman, not Dubai, requiring commute considerations
- –Limited curriculum options - primarily Indian and British, no IB programs
- –No available data on fees, university placements, or academic results
- –Smaller scale operations compared to Dubai's established international schools
- –May lack the facilities and resources of premium Dubai international schools
