We have a unique curriculum. Whist the academic core is based on the rigor of the English National Curriculum and the standard examinations such as O-Levels and A-Levels, teaching and learning will often be set from UK and regional contexts, taking full advantage of our position in UAE. This, together with our diverse community of learners, ensures that we are truly preparing the next generation of global citizens for their futures.
