- The ICSK Junior School caters to boys and girls through their pre-primary years with children starting their school life at 31/2 years till year 12. Admission is given to both boys and girls for classes KG, Prep, and Standards I to VI. The infrastructure is ideally located in the heart of Salmiya. A school is a place where the "future" takes its birth. A perfect school is the one which facilitates young minds to imbibe not only knowledge but also the courage, and wisdom to face the world with confidence. The present education system is hardly adequate to equip the students to face the challenges of a fast-changing modern world is an undeniable fact. ICSK Junior Branch is convinced that radical changes have to be effected in the teaching methodology and course content so that the system of education is not merely information based but value-oriented, formulated to bring about transformation and maturity in the personality of the students. Education is imparted to children not just through books but through a multi-sensory approach, based on life experiences and the play way methods. Our belief is to make the school an extension of the home. For best outcomes, there must be concordance between the impressions which a child gathers at home and school. The school rejuvenates the existing education system intermittently. The school, recognized by the Ministry of Education, State of Kuwait and affiliated to the Central Board of Secondary Education, Delhi, is one of the premier educational institutions in the Gulf. The school has attained unparalleled status and stability in Kuwait city with its campus. It is gratifying to note that the school stands as a symbol of excellence, fulfilling the dreams of its founding fathers. The school's Faculty Improvement Programs enable teachers to keep themselves abreast of the new developments in educational technology. Children joining the school come with a wealth of knowledge and understanding about the world around them. We aim to develop these skills and promote willingness and enthusiasm to learn more. We believe in offering all our pupils the highest quality education in a safe and secure environment. Our focus is to promote pupils' confidence, self-esteem and self will. We endeavor towards responsible, responsive, and accountable children. Quarterly e-magazine PETALS is a new venture in 2014, honing the creative talents of students and covering annual activities in the branch both in-house and inter-school competitions. We believe in a sound mind and healthy body, hence we stress multifarious productive child-centered activities. We design our course study to help children strive towards the Development of personality through public speaking. Promote a sense of belonging and collectiveness. The belief that every child is born to learn. Cater to a free and fearless learning environment for all. Involving children in making classroom rules and consequences that are easy to comprehend for all. The staff is endowed with the winning combination of experience and youth. The primary focus of the branch is to lay a strong, steady foundation in their formative years ready to face challenges in life with maturity. Other activities like orientation program for newly inducted students, art and craft exhibitions, special days, Parents' day, Annual Athletic Meet, Graduation day for Kindergarten section, Field trips, annual picnics, morning assemblies on special occasions, and National festivals are a few to mention. To instill spiritual values in students, teachers specially trained in Quran and Islamic studies hold classes for Muslim boys and girls throughout the year. Thus the ICSK Junior branch is versatile, with its homely ambiance, and a combination of students and staff both teaching and non-teaching from different states of India. In junior school, the curriculum is based on the fundamentals - Mathematics, Science, and Languages - the basics of all learning. Evaluations appropriate to the level of learner are held for LKG and PREP. However, there is an assessment system based on weekly class assignments and projects. View full school

- The English School, which is the only not-for-profit school in Kuwait, has served the English-speaking community here for 60 years and celebrated its Diamond Jubilee in style in February 2013. Closely following the Foundation Stage and National Curriculum for England, pupils are taught by well-qualified and experienced staff who recognize that all children are unique. Pupils are stretched and enriched by a curriculum that is broad, challenging and varied, and caters to the individual needs of each child. Pupils are also encouraged to develop their social and personal skills, with a strong emphasis on good manners and respect for one another. We constantly strive to improve the quality of education that we provide and respond quickly to initiatives and changes in the UK ensuring that our children do get the very best education possible. At the end of their time with us, pupils move on to excellent schools in Kuwait, the UK, and around the world. We are very proud to say that TES pupils are known for being hard workers, high achievers, and well-balanced and ambitious boys and girls ready to make the most of their abilities. The English School provides the best possible British education, primarily for the children of UK expatriates in Kuwait, from the ages of 2½ to 13 plus, to allow those children to make a seamless transition whether to UK State Maintained or Independent schools, schools in Kuwait or elsewhere in the world. With the school’s core values at the heart of all we do, we aim for each child to develop their: Confidence to be comfortable with who you are and with what you think and say. Empathy to understand and appreciate how other people feel and think. Integrity to do what is right in all situations, even when it is difficult to do so. Positivity to be cheerful, optimistic, and to work hard in all that you do. Respect - to treat yourself, all people, and all things in a way that shows you care. The English School follows the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and the National Curriculum for England (2014). Additionally, we are obliged to teach Arabic for Arabs and Islamic Studies for Arabs from Year 1 upwards, and Arabic for non-Arabs from Year 3 upwards. Kuwait Social Studies is also an additional requirement of the Kuwaiti Ministry for Education and this is taught from Year 5 upwards. Teaching at The English School is not rigidly based on age-related learning objectives, but is based around the abilities of each child. Teachers plan and implement differentiated lessons that allow the more able to be stretched and the less able to be supported with work of an appropriate level this enables all students to achieve success through appropriately leveled challenges. At The English School, we are very lucky to be able to offer subject specialist teachers throughout the school. Even our youngest children in the Foundation Stage are taught by specialist PE, ICT, and music teachers. In Key Stage 1 they continue with these specialist lessons and our Arabic students also attend lessons taught by our Arabic and Islamic teachers. In Year 3 upwards, all children attend further specialist lessons for art and DT. French is an additional specialist taught a subject that is offered from Year 4 upwards. In Year 5 students also benefit from specialist teaching in science, and in Year 6 to Year 8 all lessons are taught by subject specialists. The school has an open-door policy, so should you have any concerns about your child and their progress, you are welcome to make an appointment, in the first instance, to discuss this directly with the class teacher/tutor or the relevant subject specialist teacher. If the issue remains unresolved, an appointment should be made to discuss this further with the relevant Pastoral Coordinator or the Director of Studies should the issue continue. At the start of each academic year, parents are invited to attend year group Curriculum Information Evenings. At these meetings, the teachers have the opportunity to explain to parents what they should expect over the coming year and how parents can assist in their child’s learning. Parents also have the opportunity to ask questions with regards to the curriculum and school procedures. Twice yearly, in Term 1 and 2, there are Parent Consultation Evenings, where you will have the opportunity to meet individually with the teacher for an update on your child’s progress. Twice yearly, at the end of Term 1 and 3, you will receive a formal report on your child’s progress, in the form of an electronic report that can be accessed and downloaded from the Parent Portal.

- The English School Fahaheel has served the ex-pat community here for almost half a century now. We aim to provide the very best in British education for all our pupils in a supportive and caring environment. Well qualified and motivated staff encourage the children to develop their academic, social and personal skills closely following the National Curriculum for England and Wales. Working in close harmony with parents and the community, we enable students to reach their full potential and develop skills to become independent, self-sufficient adults who will succeed and contribute to a global society. At the English School, Fahaheel, Kuwait, we provide each student with a broad and balanced education in a safe and supportive environment that promotes an enjoyment of learning, strong motivation and excellence respect for others, and the advancement of international-mindedness At The English School Fahaheel, we fully expect excellent conduct and behavior from all our students. This expectation comes from everyone associated with the school. In this way, your son or daughter will work, learn and develop at ESF with confidence. The courtesy shown by staff and students is well-known throughout Kuwait, and this is the high standard that we fully expect throughout each Department. Both our staff and the Ministry of Education are quite clear regarding the effort and behavior expected from each student. In school, children are encouraged to strive for and achieve, their best in work, attitude, and personal behavior. Members of staff are experienced in encouraging positive aspects of a student's efforts, ranging from written approval in workbooks to reward by certificates and other means. The English School Fahaheel was founded in 1968 by a group of expatriate parents under the guidance of the incumbent British Consult. In that same year, the school was recognized by the Private Education Department of the Ministry of Education in Kuwait and opened its doors to a handful of expatriate students. At that time there was no other school in South Kuwait providing an English education other than a company school established in Ahmadi by Kuwait Oil Company for the children of its employees. This company school was closed in 1970. Due to the steady increase in the expatriate English-speaking population in Kuwait, it became evident by late 1976 that further expansion would be necessary for the not-too-distant future. In 1978 an upper story to the main building was constructed, substantially increasing the number of student places available. Progress and expansion continued unabated until the invasion of Kuwait in 1990. The occupying Iraqi army used the school premises as a command center and destroyed or looted furniture, educational materials, and anything of value. Following the liberation of Kuwait in 1991, the owner of the school, Mr. Ibrahim Shuhaiber M.Sc., was determined to see it thrive once again. A major clean-up operation began as the British Army forces in Kuwait assisted in clearing mines and ammunition from the surrounding area and beach. The English School Fahaheel soon regained its position as one of Kuwait's leading English schools, achieving excellence in education. The Early Years Department occupies spacious and stimulating teaching areas which are linked to large and well-resourced indoor and outdoor play areas. These areas are equipped with large and safe play equipment. Throughout Middle School, the ethos is to create a stimulating educational environment, lively and colorful, in which children feel secure and happy, are motivated to do their best work, and enthusiastic about the range of subjects taught in a challenging manner. The curriculum in the Upper School Department of The English School Fahaheel is designed to provide a balanced, broad, and rich education as preparation for university courses within the Middle East and further a field. A strong team of proven specialist teachers contributes much to the academic and all-around education of Upper School students. View full school

- Our little school has grown. The high school moved into a new building in 2013 the elementary school renovation was finished in 2014, and modern facilities are available from pre-school to 12th grade. All these changes mean that the school offers its students optimal conditions for teaching and learning. Apart from the buildings, we also offer a French, English, and Arabic multilingual project that focuses on the progressive learning of several languages and their cultures from the last year of pre-school. This ambitious project created meticulously in 2013 and launched at the start of the 2014 academic year is now proving successful at the start of the 2015 year. Knowledge of foreign languages opens doors around the world, allows us to understand others and their differences, and adapt to diversity. It is also a valuable asset for studies and future careers. The future of the young people in our care is what drives our projects and our actions. A future based on universal human values, a future of solidarity, an environmentally conscious future, a future to be reinvented through innovation and commitment, because this is the 21st century. This is our children’s century. Albert Camus said, "Real generosity towards the future consists of giving everything to the present." So we give, we give everything, we give our young people the tools to develop their analytical thinking, a critical mind, a sense of initiative, inventiveness, and citizenship. Prepared in this way, our students ultimately stand out as budding ambassadors. They stand out at the meeting of High School Student Council delegates of all the French high schools worldwide, at the award of Major Excellency Scholarships, and finally when the results of the baccalaureate reveal a 100% pass rate, 86% of which are distinctions. With a French baccalaureate under their belts, which serves as an international passport and is recognized throughout the world, our students are all accepted into the country and course of their choice – in France, of course, but also in England, Germany, Belgium, the United States, Canada, and Lebanon, among others. We are pleased to welcome young people from twenty different nationalities who will remain in contact through the alumni association network of French schools worldwide. We are proud of our joint achievements and confident about the future we plan together. The LFA is a rapidly changing school and is putting all of its energy into updating the school development plan and projects. The French School of Amman, progression, and transformation, A slow but regular transformation. A small elementary school was built in 1972 near Akleh Hospital and later near Addastour in the Djebel Amman district. It operated under the CNED and obtained accreditation 10 years later in 1982. The accreditation continued from 1997 to 2001, with each grade (42 students in 2002) created gradually, then 2007 to 2009 for the recent secondary school (25 students in 2005). It moved to its current premises in Their Ghobar with 150 students on January 7, 1990, the year that the Jordanian Ministry of Education recognized the school. The inauguration took place on June 13, 1990. At the start of 1996, the French government bought the land and the school buildings and undertook renovation works during that same summer. In 1996-1997, the Franco-Jordanian cooperation agreement mentioned the school. The French School of Amman is an international, accredited, and officially appointed institution. The education provided conforms to the programs, educational objectives, and organizational rules in France for public education institutions, as defined by the French Ministry of National Education and followed in all schools in the network of schools offering the French program worldwide. The school prepares for the same exams and certifications as the public schools: the Baccalaureate and the Diplôme National du Brevet (the national diploma awarded in 9th grade). Students of over 20 nationalities are represented from pre-school to 12th grade they enrich and are the pride of French institutions overseas. A melting pot of nationalities, the school welcomes the children of diplomats, embassy staff, researchers, executives of companies, and international organizations who are all faithful to the French educational system. We are honored that 26% of Jordanian families have selected our school. French School of Amman High School +962 6 4300600 [email protected] View full school

- A very warm welcome to the International Community School in Amman, Jordan (ICS). Our unique brand of personalized learning ensures that the entire learning experience is tailored to the strengths and needs of each student. Inclusivity is enshrined in all that we do, and we are proud to be able to meet the needs of a wide spectrum of abilities and need, from the very most able Oxbridge or Ivy League aspirant to students with mild to moderate learning or physical needs or difficulties, and everyone in between. An independent, private and non-profit school, owned by the Society for the International Community in Jordan (SICJ), and founded in 1953 as a primary school to serve the children of the British Military based in Amman, the International Community School today is proud to be one of the longest-established international schools in Jordan and the Middle East. Home to over 700 students, representing over 50 different nationalities, ICS is a truly international, co-educational day school, which offers high-quality education to students aged 3-18. Following the National Curriculum of England and Wales, modified to our local and international context, all teaching is conducted in English by native English-speaking, UK-Qualified teachers. All students study a broad and balanced curriculum, drawing on the very best of British, Jordanian, and international education. Our senior students study for the IGCSE and also for the A-Level, the gold standard of pre-university qualifications worldwide, but many students also take the SAT and commonly apply for undergraduate schools in the USA and Canada. Fully accredited by COBIS (the Council of British International Schools) and rated 'Good with Outstanding Features' by BSO (British Schools Overseas), ICS is also a member of CIS, ECIS, and BSME. The school is located on a purpose-built, semi-rural campus in Na’our area, approximately fifteen minutes from most embassies. Whilst our current facility is of a high standard, with specialist facilities in sport, ICT, Science, and the Arts, we have recently undergone a major expansion project, which will see a brand new, state-of-the-art Swimming Pool, Sports Hall, Theatre and Early Childhood Centre opening over the next couple of years. The school is also renowned for the quality of its enrichment program, and also for its focus on Community Service and Global Citizenship. The International Community School provides personalized, high-quality education, drawing on the best of British and international practices. We will continue to nurture and invest in an inclusive and diverse learning community of happy, confident, and creative global citizens. Where every child can thrive. We strive to adapt the curriculum to meet the needs, strengths, interests, and backgrounds of our students, and to ensure it is also a vehicle through which to pursue our Guiding Statements. We review our curriculum regularly and also aim to ensure it is articulated, vertically and horizontally, to ensure a contiguous learning journey, and a progression of skills, for every student. In the Early Years Stage, our curriculum is based on the Early Years and Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework from the UK, modified for our local and international context, and drawing on the very best of global practice and pedagogy. We keep a close and caring eye on each child to ensure they fulfill their potential in a supportive and nurturing environment. Early Years subjects are taught through six half-termly topics, the majority of which are taught by the class teacher. English and Mathematics are taught both as discrete entities and as linked units to the half-termly topic work, but there is also a pervasive focus on learning through play and discovery. In Primary school, we continue to exploit the full potential of our #earlyyearsup approach to pedagogy and practice, ensuring that learning remains child-focused. The curriculum broadly follows the 2014 UK National Curriculum for Mathematics, English, and Science, modified and adapted where necessary for our local and international context. Each class in the Primary School also receives specialist teaching in Music, PE, and Languages (either Arabic or French). In Secondary school, students also follow a modified version of the National Curriculum of England and Wales, but we aim, wherever possible, to ensure that it remains engaging and relevant for our international student body and that it is personalized, wherever possible, to the individual needs and strengths of each student. As students move up through the school, their curriculum offer becomes more and more specialized, whilst retaining some of the breadths which is the hallmark of a British curriculum. View full school

To achieve its vision, work has been done on the application of the national science curriculum which qualifies the student to join all the universities inside and outside the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan. Foreign curricula such as the British curriculum and the International Baccalaureate, are applied at all levels. We believe that the students have the right to have multiple options that meet their needs, ambition, and innovation (creativity).
