In order to support the transfer of children between the JESS branches parents are requested to complete an Internal Transfer Application Form (see below) and submit it to the Reception at either branch together with Dhs100 Administration Fee.

All transfers are subject to the availability of places and as such will be subject to the normal entry criterion that applies for each branch. 

The exception to this is children who are making the progression from Jumeirah Year 6 to Arabian Ranches Year 7, where a place in the secondary school will be automatic, subject to confirmation terms & conditions being adhered to.  For further information about transferring to JESS please refer to At the end of Year 6

We are unable to offer any priority to current Jumeirah JESS children who have older brothers and sisters transferring to the secondary school at Arabian Ranches.  We recommend that you submit Transfer Applications as early as possible as all year groups are full and have waiting lists.

No Internal transfers can take place after 28 January during the academic year; this is in line with current KHDA Guidelines.

Debentures

Effective 1 October 2011 the cost of a personal debenture is the same at each school, prior to this the costs were different.  In this case parents will either be invoiced for an additional amount or required to purchase a new personal debenture at Arabian Ranches dependent upon their debenture status at Jumeirah .

If your child is using a corporate debenture at Jumeirah and one is not available at Arabian Ranches parents will be required to pay the appropriate personal debenture fee.  Due to the different monetary values corporate debentures are not transferable.

For further information about your child please contact  sclegg@jess.sch.ae
