Language
English
Play-based, nature-led early years built on the UK EYFS framework, honouring childhood as a powerful time of learning in its own right. Home-like spaces with soft lighting and enclosed, sensory-rich play areas.
Teaching Approach
Play-based and inquiry-led, in home-like, nature-rich environments.
Follows the National Curriculum for England, taught through immersive cross-curricular blocks rather than isolated subjects, so mathematics, art, history and science flow together. A low-tech, high-presence approach introduces digital tools gradually in the upper primary years.
Teaching Approach
Immersive, thematic blocks with minimal screen time; technology introduced gradually in upper primary.
A nature-led, dome-architected campus in Nad Al Sheba 4, designed by EMKAAN. Learning is organised around courtyards, gardens and outdoor classrooms rather than a conventional facilities block, with home-like early years spaces, a treehouse classroom, an outdoor kitchen and a chicken coop.
Bright, well-resourced classrooms supporting the school's Head, Heart, Hands approach.
Dedicated spaces for science and hands-on creative learning.
Garden beds and outdoor learning areas for hands-on, inquiry-based study; the gardens themselves are used to teach.
Spaces for working with clay and handwork, plus room for expressive movement.
Open courtyards for exploration, physical games, play and quiet reflection.
Shaded gardens and open green spaces integrated into daily learning.
An elevated treehouse classroom that develops balance and spatial awareness.
Shaded outdoor learning and play areas across the dome-based campus.
A dining room plus an outdoor kitchen that stimulates memory through taste and smell.
A chicken coop offering animal-care experiences that foster empathy and responsibility.
Home-like early years spaces with soft lighting and enclosed, sensory-rich play areas.
