PREPARING YOUR OWN PATHWAY

Life at Dubai British School Emirates Hills is about so much more than just producing excellent results at GCSEs, BTECs and A Levels. Whilst our results do remain outstanding, our ethos is focused on inspiring and nurturing holistic personal growth and development in all our students which will prepare them for life beyond school, whether at university, in the workplace or in their community.

That said, helping every child attain the best results they can in public examinations, given their own individual pathway, will always remain an important part of that journey from school to the next phase of their life.

It is noteworthy that great results and sound personal development are completely intertwined; by helping our students gain vital life skills of independence, organisation and planning, to manage their time, and take agency over their choices in their studies and in life in general, they become better prepared for both public examinations and life beyond school.

This makes the learner the only person on the planet who truly possesses all the nuanced information required to make these choices; learning to use that information wisely requires both support and independent practice.

By prioritising student agency at DBSEH, from a young age and across every year group in the school, we are continually helping our young people prepare for what success looks like for them personally, both in their public examinations and life beyond school.

We wish all of our students the very best of luck in their upcoming examinations.
