Summary of ADEK Inspection

The overall performance of the school is weak. In summer 2016, the school reorganized with the middle phase's loss had a 60% turnover of staff and an influx of 130 new students, representing a significant minority of the total roll. The senior leadership team was restructured, and leadership is now much improved. The school provides a safe and secure environment for students though it does not adequately prepare them for future education. Students' understanding and appreciation of UAE culture and Heritage are one of the school's strengths. They know how to live healthy lifestyles, but their attainment in most core subjects is weak. While some aspects of teaching are functional, especially in Grades 4 and 5, the overall effectiveness of teaching is weak in almost half of all lessons. In the minority of lessons in Grades 2 and 3, boys often lose interest and misbehave. This affects the learning and progress of other students. The principal and newly formed senior leadership team are aware of the situation and the problems associated with the recent high turnover of staff and the rapid rise in student numbers. They have a clear vision for school improvement but have not yet fully implemented plans and strategies to improve the situation. Parents are fully supportive of the school—the school benefits from suitable premises.
