Breaks and Meals at Dubai British School Jumeirah Park

The school ensures that students have adequate time for rest and nourishment, with a 15-minute morning break and a 45-minute lunch break. During these times, students must have their school hats and water bottles, adhering to the “no hat, no play” policy for younger children to ensure sun safety.

The on-campus cafeteria at Dubai British School Jumeirah Park is managed by Leela’s Lunches, providing a variety of healthy meal options, including comprehensive lunches. Additionally, students have the option to bring their own lunches, though some items, particularly unhealthy snacks, are prohibited to accommodate dietary restrictions and allergies.
