Curriculum
We offer a comprehensive curriculum to our students to ensure that they benefit from a broad range of valuable studies.
Our Kindergarten KG1 and KG2 classes are taught in a separate unit, with pupils working on developing the language capabilities and skills necessary to prepare them for formal study in Grade 1.
Our youngest students are given ample opportunities to develop all the key basic skills they need in reading, writing, speaking, and listening as well as in physical movement, manipulation, and social skills, so that they can progress successfully into 1st Grade ready to embark on a more in-depth and rigorous curriculum
Our excellent class teachers teach students in Grades 1 to 4 in self-contained classes with a curriculum comprising English, Arabic, Mathematics, Islamic Studies, Science, Computer Studies, PE, Music, and Art, with Social Studies and French being introduced in Grade 4.
“We are proud to have a dedicated staff team of energetic, positive individuals who not only have the highest expectations of themselves, but also of their students, with mutual respect being a strong theme that runs throughout all of our Grades”

Our staff make the success of our students their top priority and encourage students themselves to take responsibility for their own learning within a supportive and stimulating student-centred environment.
