The Abu Dhabi Investment Office (ADIO) and the Abu Dhabi Department of Education and Knowledge (ADEK) and a multinational consortium led by Plenary Group and BESIX Group, has inaugurated three state-of-the-art schools in Abu Dhabi.

The new educational facilities represent the first time that school infrastructure has been developed in the UAE under a public-private partnership (PPP) model.

The project has significantly enhanced Abu Dhabi’s educational landscape by ensuring additional capacity for 5,360 students, from kindergarten to Grade 12, for the 2024-2025 academic year and beyond.

Officials gathered at one of the Zayed City School campuses today to celebrate the opening. As the first educational facilities delivered through ADIO’s PPP procurement framework, the Zayed City Schools project aims to elevate the standard of educational facilities in the UAE capital and serve as a model for increased private sector participation in the delivery and financing of public infrastructure across Abu Dhabi.

The three new schools, located within Abu Dhabi’s Zayed City, span a combined area of 81,000 square meters. Designed to meet Estidama sustainability standards, the campuses feature state-of-the-art technologies alongside learning spaces engineered to inspire creativity, marking a new benchmark for educational facilities in the region.
