curriculum overview
A rigorous British curriculum nurturing biliterate individuals and preparing students for GCSEs, A-Levels, BTECs, and beyond.
We offer a world class education founded on the National Curriculum for England.
This educational programme, from Foundation Stage through to A-Levels, is internationally recognised and will provide our students with the opportunity to access some of the finest universities in the UAE as well as overseas.
In the Foundation Stage, we blend the English National Curriculum EYFS framework with the Ministry of Education standards in a bilingual approach. This stage focuses on play based learning, nurturing each child’s social, emotional, physical, and cognitive growth. Through a balance of English and Arabic, students build foundational language skills and cultural awareness, promoting confidence and academic readiness for Key Stage 1.
Our Primary Curriculum provides a strong foundation in core subjects such as English, Mathematics, and Science, fostering essential skills and knowledge to ensure a seamless transition to our Secondary School. We utilise renowned programmes like Read Write Inc, White Rose, and Accelerated Reader to deliver an engaging, challenging, and culturally relevant education. Integrated technology enhances learning experiences, equipping students with the skills needed to thrive in a dynamic and ever changing world.
At our Secondary School, students embark on an enriching academic journey that builds upon the strong foundation established in primary education. This pathway leads to GCSE examinations in Year 11, followed by A-Levels and BTECs in Years 12 and 13. Our globally recognised curriculum equips students with the knowledge, skills, and qualifications needed to excel in higher education, whether in the UK, UAE, or beyond.
Choosing A Levels and BTECs at GNS offers students a diverse and flexible curriculum tailored to their strengths and aspirations. These qualifications are internationally recognised, providing pathways to top universities and career opportunities. Our personalised approach ensures each student achieves their full potential.
