Comments/Description | |||||
Opened in 2008 Al Yasmina School is a not-for-profit school staffed almost entirely by UK teachers. The curriculum followed is the National Curriculum for England, with additional Arabic lessons taught. In addition to delivering education from Key Stage 1 through to 4, Al Yasmina provides Foundation classes for 3 to 5 year olds and will be offering post 16 provision for 16 to 17 year olds as from September 2011. In planning the curriculum and putting it into practice, we ensure that excellence is pursued and valued, that lessons are challenging and have pace and direction and whether the pupils are taught individually, in groups or as part of a whole class, it meets their individual needs. Certain experiences, knowledge and skills that we promote, are essential to a well rounded development of every pupil and form the basis to future learning. Ongoing assessments take place in each Year Group, and at certain times of the year there will be more formal assessments. A Curriculum, based on the National Curriculum for England, serves as a framework for our teaching and learning and helps ensure consistency and continuity between and across classes and between Year Groups. Pupils are assessed soon after entry to the school and on an ongoing basis throughout the academic year. Assessments enable pupil’s progress to be carefully tracked and for any difficulties to be managed before they become an obstacle to learning and achieving. The school has state-of-the-art facilities, including two sports halls, a large flood lit all weather sports field, two swimming pools, a climbing wall, two libraries, extensive Design and Technology Workshops, numerous music classrooms and twelve ICT resource teaching areas. |
