The Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum is specifically designed to lay the groundwork and provide support as children transition into the National Curriculum for England, which commences around the age of five with Key Stage 1 and progresses through Key Stage 4. This curriculum encompasses seven key areas of learning, ensuring a holistic approach to early childhood education.

Students in this program progress through Key Stage 2 of the National Curriculum for England, which builds upon the foundations established in Foundation Stage and Key Stage 1.

Our core curriculum encompasses English, Mathematics, Science, Arabic, and ICT, while also providing students with opportunities in Humanities, Art, Physical Education, Islamic Education, Social Studies, Moral Education, and Life Skills, supplemented by French language instruction.

Upon completion of Year 6, students emerge with a well-rounded education, characterized by strong character, articulate expression, and confidence, ready for secondary education.

In Key Stage 3, Our curriculum provides a rich and diverse educational experience that fosters critical thinking, creativity, and independent inquiry. Through a balanced approach to subjects such as English, Mathematics, Science, Humanities, Languages, and ICT, students develop essential skills and knowledge while exploring their interests and passions. With a focus on inquiry-based learning and real-world applications, our Key Stage 3 program prepares students for the rigors of upper secondary education and equips them with the skills they need to thrive in an ever-changing global society.

Although our educational foundation lies within the English National Curriculum, we are deeply committed to celebrating and integrating the rich culture and traditions of the UAE into every aspect of our teaching and learning.
