Education Institute

"Alternatives for Educational Success"

To successfully operate a school, much more is required than desks and pencils. There must be strong leadership and solid educational standards in place, in addition to sound financial management. The Education Institute is responsible for ensuring that all these things come together at the Independent Schools.

Operating under the Supreme Education Council, the Education Institute oversees and provides support services to the new schools in three essential areas. First, the Institute develops curriculum standards in key subject areas to facilitate a high level of learning. Second, the Institute provides professional development opportunities so teachers and principals can stay current on the latest teaching and management techniques. Third, the Institute ensures that the schools are fiscally accountable by monitoring their financial managment through periodic reports and audits

Under the supervision of Acting Director Sabah Al-Haidoos, the Education Institute houses four offices:

• Office of Independent Schools
• Office of Curriculum Standards
• Office of Professional Development
• Office of Finance
