C
ranleigh Abu Dhabi was opened in September
2014, and is the sister school to the prestigious
Cranleigh School in Surrey, UK, which was
founded in 1865.

The two schools work together closely, sharing the same


family-based community ethos and an educational phi-
losophy that focuses on the whole child. This means that
alongside academic excellence, there is an emphasis on
ensuring students are active beyond the usual timetable,
challenging themselves to move out of their comfort zone
and achieve beyond their expectations. Whether that is
on the sports field or through a performance platform, the
intention is that every child finds a niche where he or she
can stretch, succeed and shine.

Based in Abu Dhabi’s Cultural District on Saadiyat Island


just next to the Louvre Abu Dhabi, the school offers a
British international curriculum and has over 1,300 pupils
from more than 60 nationalities, spanning FS1 to Sixth

cally over the past few years and now has over 1200
pupils covering the ages of 3 up to 18. We have almost
50 nationalities represented within our school with
the biggest percentage being British at around 40%

BSM has been a keen entrant in the BSME Games since the
Primary Games were first held in 2003. We have participated
in the U13 BSME Games since 2012 hosting the event three
times. We have participated in every U15 Games since its con-
ception and we are delighted that are involved again this year

Every year the BSME Games is a tremendous event to be


involved in and we are sure that this year’s event will build
on previous events and take the experience for the students
to even higher levels. We are bringing 22 students and
four teachers but our goal is as much for the students to
have an experience they will remember for the rest of their
lives, meeting students from our schools and forming new
friendships as it is to worry too much about the winning of
the event again—although that would be nice.

Like all teams, our students have trained hard to ensure they
can give their best at these games. I genuinely wish the very

Kuwait English School | Kuwait

T
he establishment of Kuwait English School was, in 1978,
the dream of the present School Chairman, Mr. Mohamed
Jassim Al Saddah, at that time serving as Kuwait’s
Ambassador to Spain and the current Founder/Director,
Mrs. Rhoda Elizabeth Muhmood. Both shared a passion for educa-
tion. A modest villa in which to start the School (September 1979)
was found until in 1984, with a population of some 1500 students of
all ages, a purpose-built school was opened. Since that time there
have been innumerable developments to ever improve the facilities
and the quality of education.

In 1991 a specialised learning department “The Green Unit” was


opened to cater for students with learning disabilities. This depart-
ment has become an icon for recognising and nurturing talent,
however modest or concealed, and providing the students with
useful life skills along with confidence.

In 1997 a specialised Sixth Form area, designated for students of


Years 12 & 13 was opened. This section “The Millennium Centre” Top Row (L-R): Bottom Row (L-R):
was inaugurated by Dr. Rasha Al Sabah who, at that time was Nasser Al Buti, David Jacob, Bader Al Obaid, Sulaiman Neha Joseph, Mariam Elghabary, Boshra El Ghossain,
