Empowering Youth: Our Journey to the NAE UNICEF Summit in Houston

Thank you all so much for welcoming me into the BIS Abu Dhabi family. I have been utterly amazed and humbled by the number of you who have shown kindness and support towards me as someone who has so recently arrived at the school and in the UAE. Thank you!

BIS Abu Dhabi is a wonderful school – when I visited in February, I was so impressed with the students, staff, facilities, and Mr. Cocker’s vision that I could not resist applying for the position of Head of Primary. Now that I am here, I can only say that the school is even better than I had realised, and I can see where the students get their lovely characteristics from.

• One in every three grades (33%) was awarded at the world-class level of 9-8, showcasing our students' ability to excel. 

• One in every two students’ grades (50%) awarded was at grade 9-7, highlighting the exceptional performance of our students.
