Al Mustaqbal Private School remains acceptable overall, the same as in 2022-23. High teacher turnover affected achievement, with several subjects declining to acceptable, and governance also declined to acceptable. Leaders improved infrastructure, technology use, and maintenance, but assessment use, independent learning, and support for students with special educational needs still require development.
