Cognita Follows Royal Grammar School Guildford Dubai Launch With Shock Takeover of KHDA Outstanding Horizon English School
The surprise move by Cognita is widely seen as a powerful endorsement of UAE education and, in particular, the role of the KHDA in establishing a framework for outstanding schools and inward investment. The news is even more positive given the impact of Covid 19 and its impact across schools and investment.
In a powerful vote for the quality of education in the UAE, Cognita, the UK-based global education group – and one of the world’s major educational conglomerates running more than 82 schools across 11 countries worldwide, has followed its launch of the Tier 1 Royal Grammar School Guildford in Dubai (opening in September 2021) with the acquisition of the KHDA Outstanding Horizon English School in Dubai from Al Najah Education.
