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

School leaders have ensured that student achievement is at a very high level across almost all subject areas. Children's achievement is excellent in French, mathematics and science in Maternelle. External results are most positive in Secondaire in these key subjects and in other aspects of performance in the Brevet and Baccalaureat. Progress rates in Arabic and Islamic education remain good. Students have acquired excellent learning skills in Maternelle and Lycée.

Personal and social development

Students are proactive and have a strong sense of community. They are able to use their initiative and manage their own projects. Students take their leadership roles very seriously and raise funds for global disasters and charitable organisations. Students have a strong empathy for others, are keen to offer help, and have a very positive work ethic. Students display excellent behaviour and courtesy in school with equally excellent attendance and punctuality.

Teaching, curriculum and care

In Maternelle and Lycée teachers are experts in how children and students learn. In other phases, teachers apply their knowledge and understanding effectively. Teachers establish strong relationships with students and know them very well, creating effective learning environments. Almost all teachers have a good knowledge of their students' strengths and

Wellbeing

Well-being is fostered through monthly curriculum themes and activities, including outdoor meditation sessions and the Café Educatif. Fun therapies reduce student stress such as taking groups out on a visit to an animal shelter. Surveys of students, staff, and parents inform well-being initiatives, ensuring broader stakeholder involvement. A bespoke well-being curriculum is being developed by heads of all phases. Research-based initiatives address different student needs, such as building resilience and digital literacy.

Inclusion

Members of the inclusion team work together with parents and teachers to create a circle of support around the student of determination. There is a well written and recently reviewed inclusion policy which is signed and understood by all teachers. Regular communication with parents through formal and informal channels maintains a vital link in the chain of interventions to support progress of the student. Ongoing observations logged on Pronote ensure high quality skills acquisition.

Leadership and management

The highly respected principal, aspirational governors and highly competent strategic leadership team have implemented a coherent vision incorporating well-being and student-centred learning aimed at equipping young people for their uncertain future. Effective strategic planning and monitoring has resulted in excellent performance across a range of performance indicators, notably in Maternelle. School leaders have retained the trust and confidence of students, parents, and staff. Governors have invested in a new 21st century campus which provides excellent facilities.

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:

  • French: the Baccalauréat général.

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)
