Outstanding Primary Key Stage 1 Class Teacher

Foundations for the life-long process of education are laid down in the primary phase. This is when a child’s interest in all around him or her is most readily awakened by good teaching and it is when intellect and mind are at their most receptive to the stimulus of new ideas, events, personal investigation and positive feedback. We, as parents and teachers share the responsibility for providing the opportunities for young people to nourish, to give them a stake in their future, furnishing the means by which they are able to make the right decisions, lead others and achieve high levels of personal fulfillment. Kings’ Dubai is designed in every respect to offer children pathways towards these goals.

Our dictum, ” the best by every child” describes the very essence of our work. We have high expectations of our pupils and although the search for academic excellence is at centre stage, pastoral care and personal development in the form of moral strength and stability, creativity, self-discipline and physical well-being are highly significant aspects of an education at Kings’. Together they embrace the needs of the whole child by way of preparation for participation in a fast moving, rapidly changing international community.

At Kings’ we take strength from the very best of British education, which together with the expertise of well qualified teachers deploying the very latest methods of teaching and learning, offers a curriculum that enables pupils to achieve their academic potential and ensures, whatever his/her competence and capabilities that each child becomes a life-long learner; thoughtful, self-aware and tolerant of others.

Teachers have been selected for their expertise and experience so that we are able to offer a broad and balanced curriculum which places success at the heart of our spirit and purpose. Specialists teach ICT, Music, Physical Education, French and Arabic.

My team which comprises the Founding Company, teachers and administrators believe that it is our duty and responsibility to provide a high quality learning environment and supportive school community where reserves of talent, latent ability and developing skills are nurtured and where each child may thrive as an individual and as a team member.

Our school with its superb, purpose designed facilities offers an once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for children to build the foundation for future success. It is my great privilege as Headteacher to lead Kings’ Dubai from its inception.
