Elisa Paitian

I am the Admissions Manager at Dubai British School Jumeira, where I lead the admissions process and support families in joining our growing school community. My role focuses on guiding parents and students through every step of the journey — from enquiry to enrolment — while ensuring each family feels welcomed, supported, and confident in their decision to join DBS Jumeira.

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Teaching Mandarin and a Master’s degree in Law with a specialization in International Relations, both earned in China. This academic foundation, combined with my professional experience in education, allows me to connect with families from diverse cultural backgrounds and approach admissions with both precision and empathy.

Fluent in English, Russian, and Mandarin, I work closely with our Principal, academic leaders, and the wider community to ensure our admissions practices reflect the values of inclusivity, excellence, and care that define DBS Jumeira.
