Primary School Curriculum
We offer a broad and balanced curriculum throughout the primary phase which has been developed from the English National Curriculum and which represents 75% of the timetable. The Jordanian Ministry of Education approved the Arabic curriculum which occupies approximately 25% of the timetable. This includes both Arabic and Social Studies Arabic. The following subjects are taught by specialist teachers, a rarity for most Primary schools:
Secondary School Curriculum
Students in the Secondary school follow the IB Middle Years Programme of study, strengthened by the IGCSE curriculum. By experiencing two educational programmes at the same time, students receive an exciting, student-led MYP experience coupled with the well-respected, rigorous IGCSE system which provides globally recognised qualifications at the end of Grade 10. Students are then able to progress to the IB Diploma programme.
The International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma is a two-year pre-university education. Successful completion of the course results in an internationally recognised IB Diploma or individual subject Certificates.
