KHDA in brief

KHDA’s own one-page summary of its 2023–24 inspection, written for parents, word for word. The full inspection report remains the reference. Source A: Parent Report 2023–24, summary only

Students’ achievement

Standards of achievement in Arabic are acceptable and in Islamic education, they are good. These are improving because of strengthening leadership and teaching in these subjects. In Secondary and Post-16, standards of achievement are very good in English, mathematics, science and in a range of other subjects. In the Foundation Stage, standards are less consistent, but still result in at least good achievement in English, mathematics, and science.

Personal and social development

Students actively engage in various community activities, such as charitable campaigns and environmental initiatives. They display an excellent work ethic, participate in innovative competitions, and uphold a deep understanding of Islamic values. Emirati heritage, culture, and national events are fully appreciated. Students' behaviour, attitudes and relationships are exemplary; they celebrate diverse cultures including their own, fostering a respectful and inclusive school environment through cultural learning projects and activities.

Teaching, curriculum and care

Teachers display strong subject knowledge, planning purposeful and engaging lessons catering to meet the needs of different students. Time management is typically effective, but although lessons are usually differentiated, higher achieving students sometimes have to wait until late in the lesson to be sufficiently challenged. Internal assessments align with curriculum standards and teachers know their students well. Teaching standards are less consistently strong in Foundation Stage and lower Primary.

Wellbeing

The school is very successful in ensuring the well-being of the entire community. Students feel safe and valued in this inclusive school. Leaders implement effective policies that very positively impact the well-being of the community. The school's staff are skilled at building the confidence and self-esteem of students, creating a highly positive climate with clear behaviour expectations.

Inclusion

The school's commitment to inclusion is strong, but inconsistencies in implementation, especially in Primary, affects provision quality. Notable improvements in the identification process and Individualised Education Plans (IEPs) have occurred, but inconsistent adoption of these, by some teachers, limits their full impact. Parental involvement varies, affecting the quality of provision and outcomes. Inconsistent differentiated lesson planning impacts student progress, especially for those with tcomplex learning needs. However, most students make expected progress in learning

Leadership and management

A very strong, dedicated and resilient principal alongside her head of school and vice principal, implement a clear vision and have led significant recent improvements in standards of education for students in Secondary and Post-16, and all students in Arabic and Islamic education. New leaders, this academic year, in inclusion and early years have potential but need more time for their impact to be seen. The school encourages parental involvement and has a dedicated and impactful governing body.

What parents told KHDA (survey, 2019–20)

The 2023–24 inspection report has no parents’ survey section; this is how the 2019–20 report, the newest with one and 6 years old, sums up parents’ answers, in the inspectors’ words.

2019–20 inspection · 639 parents responded Source A: Full Inspection Report 2019–20

Overall

  • A very high percentage of parents who responded to the survey are happy with the education of their children and readiness of staff to listen and act on parents’ views.
  • A small number of comments criticised the cleanliness of the washrooms and overcrowded classrooms.

Safety and care

  • All parents who responded thought their children were safe at school.
  • Similarly, a few said there is a need for adults to whom girls especially can share personal issues.

Teaching

  • The majority believe their children are taught the right skills to learn effectively.
  • Whilst there are a significant number of parents negatively commenting about on-line learning and the use of computers, the inspection findings judged these activities to be enhancing students’ education.
  • Many other parents think these activities motivated students to work harder.

Behaviour

  • A few written comments made reference to bullying.

Recognised by UAE universities?

UAE universities ask for the Ministry of Education’s equivalency of the Grade 12 certificate. For this school’s curriculum, the student needs:

  • British: five IGCSE or GCSE passes (grade E or 3) and one A level or two AS levels (grade E).

Arab students also need Arabic, and Muslim students Islamic Studies, in each of the last three years.
KHDA attests the certificate first. Ask the school which body accredits it.Source Ministry of Education, equivalency service, read 24 September 2026 (opens in a new tab)
