The Bayan School Board of Directors approved the Strategic Plan updated during the school year.
With facilitation assistance from Transformations Systems President Teresa Arpin, and under the leadership of Nada Shamsi (Coordinator), and various committees, the school managed to develop the plan with a wide representation from board, administrators, faculty, staff, parents and students.
The strategic plan is mainly focused on two strategies; Each strategy was assigned a number of end results. Those end results can be described as outcomes of each strategy.
Once those end results were identified the school assigned action steps that would accomplish each end result. This created a road map for the school to ensure the two main strategies were adopted and integrated into the school. The strategic plan is a continuous plan that will require continuous review and implementation for many years to come.
We are extremely grateful to our Board Chairperson Dr. May Al Otaibi and the large group of participants for their hard work and cooperation which resulted in a thoughtfully developed plan that will guide our school through the school year.

Very proud to be an alumni of this well reputed School and now a parent. The School has seen incredible growth in the past two decades under a strong leadership, incredible team and experienced teachers. All this in hand with state of the art facilities like the maker learning area, a full equipped gymnasium, theatre rooms, art rooms, science labs.. and so on, with expansion projects in the pipeline all to support the education of our beloved children, who I must say, love their Bayan Community. Not just a School but a home. Definitely a home!

With no hesitation, Bayan School is the best in the Kingdom and it keeps getting better and better in all areas and exceeds our expectations. I can clearly see it in how well rounded my 3 children turned out to be, responsible, ethical and most of all assertive, confident and caring, makes me proud. Students are very well behaved and greatly contribute to their community. The School recognizes all of its stakeholders, including us grandparents!

I am a proud parent of 2 Bahrain Bayan School students and I rate the school outstanding in every aspect. I have many stories to share and all of them fall under the fact that the school always prioritizes the safety and health of students. The school also has 8 counselors from K to 12 that all help on both the academic and the social emotional aspect of the students
