Al Hamadanya Grand Private School

The school aims ‘to apply a broad educational approach to leadership, to develop a generation armed with high academic values, to encourage students to be proud of their national identity. To keep up with international standards, supported by a family of teachers and workers who continuously develop professionally through an effective partnership with the community’.

The school has an inclusive admissions policy, admitting all who apply in KG, primary and middle school. It operates a selective policy in the high school. This is based on prior attainment.

Students are making acceptable progress in all subjects when compared to their low starting points in Kindergarten (KG). This is because they are keen to learn and are building their basic skills effectively in the primary and middle school phases. Professional development is matched to individual teachers’ needs and the learning needs of students identified in diagnostic tests. This is having a positive impact on the engagement of students and increasing the knowledge and understanding they gain in lessons.
