Fifth Dimension Elementary School

At Fifth Dimension Elementary School, children develop valuable skill sets that prepare them for future careers in Science, Technology Engineering and Maths. A STEM education is not only about the future, it is about today.

We offer a future focused education to students from Pre-K to Grade 5. Our curriculum is enriched with digital technology, Makerspaces and bio-domes that promote intellectual curiosity and social and emotional development. We have adopted an American Curriculum which is based on the California Common Core State Standards (CCSS).

One of our main foci is promoting learning through digital skills. We have significant digital technology resources which ensure that our students are connected at all times and learning is accessible 24/7. We offer extra learning using coding, robotics and simulations. Through digital skills we promote intellectual curiosity, social and emotional development and innovation.

We provide our students with a safe learning environment with which to grow and reach high levels of academic achievement. We support our students, parents and teachers through valuing our communication and transparency. We aim to send our students into higher education having learned honesty, creativity, innovation, communication, accountability and responsibility enabling their confidence and growth to continue beyond our teaching.

Our mission is to become a leading STEM focused elementary school in the UAE that drives innovation and ambition with our community.

The school’s vision is tied to UAE’s Centennial 2071 plan which is futuristic in its vision and directly relevant to our immediate efforts today. The plan “aims at investing in the future generations, by preparing them with the skills and knowledge needed to face rapid changes and to make the UAE the best country in the world by the next centennial in 2071.”

In this spirit, the executive team has built the vision for a school that coincides with the energy and vision of the Centennial 2071 plan. The vision of Fifth Dimension posits that excellent education is the lynchpin and catalyst for the future workforce.

We will achieve our mission by:

• Challenging our learners to be critical and creative thinkers
• Promoting rigor across our curriculum so that children are stretched and challenged in their thinking
• Establishing a foundational fluencies literacy and numeracy so that children can access the curriculum and therefore, build confidence in their learning
• Encouraging children to pursue their interests and strengths so they are inspired to become lifelong learners and active participants in society
• Instilling a sense of community throughout the school so that children and parents develop a sense of belonging and relatedness.

These facilities enable us to deliver a highly advanced environment in which students can thrive and develop their talents and skills.
