Keith Miller

Yasmina British Academy – A British Primary and Secondary school in Abu Dhabi

Welcome to Yasmina British Academy. We are one of the few recognised outstanding schools in the UAE where our students’ attainment and progress, within all Year groups, are significantly above UK, UAE and global averages. The whole Academy community is very proud of its achievements to date and is looking forward to working in partnership to become a leading Academy of excellence within the region.

No matter of the age of the student, central to everything that we do at Yasmina British Academy is focused on the development of happy, confident, independent and flexible learners, who are fully prepared for advanced study and work within the ever changing demands of the 3^rd Millennium. We genuinely care about all people within our Academy community.

We have the highest expectations of staff and the whole student body. Central to this vision is the drive and determination to ensure that all everybody is fully supported and maximises their potential and performance in all strands of school life.

At the heart of our entire academic, personal development and extra curricular programmes are the 3 key objectives of Aldar Education: Our Purpose – Empowering the next generation to shape our future, Our Promise – Delivering the highest standards of education and inspiring a love of learning and Our Values- Excellence, Creativity, Passion, Respect and Collaboration.

Through outstanding learning and teaching and the constant reinforcement of our Core objectives, we can fully prepare all our students for adult life, to enable them all to practice and develop leadership qualities, to be highly motivated, confident and creative independent learners and most importantly understand the value of being respectful and tolerant international citizens.

Highly effective home/school partnerships are central to everything we will do at Yasmina British Academy. We genuinely believe that keeping parents fully informed and engaged in their child’s education from a very early age will fully support and maximise academic and social development. A full programme of parental consultation evenings, open forums, parental engagement workshops, coffee mornings and our open door policy will ensure that the parental body is kept completely informed of all school developments and fully empowered to support their child though out all stages of their education.

I hope that you find browsing through our web site both useful and informative. However, the best way to make an informed decision is to visit us in person and experience the Academy in action. Please contact our admissions department to arrange a Tour of the Academy.

I look forward to meeting you in the near future.

TESTIMONIALS

I want to congratulate the school for outstanding achievements, especially this year’s IGCSE and A Level results and gaining the outstanding award once again. I want to applaud the tremendous effort that has been going into the various aspects of coordination that are currently happening in school. The academics are exceptional, but even better is the character development program. The teachers and administrators in Yasmina British Academy are loving and supportive and fully accessible. They have always taken the time out to address our concerns beyond our expectations! The teachers get to know my children’s individual strengths and push them to levels they can and should achieve.
Both my children are turning out to be very well rounded and have a well-balanced approach to academics and co-curricular activities. The entire staff of Yasmina British Academy is very nurturing, and I feel fortunate that my children get to attend a school that has such outstanding teachers.

The teachers are what I like the most about Yasmina British Academy.
My kids have been lucky for having dedicated and lovely teachers.

There is no amount as a parent I could place on the selfless sacrifices that you ALL make daily, and it has been even more during these current critical times.
The tutelage and care you give our children during their foundation years is an essential building block of their future.
Thank you all for giving our LITTLE one BIG dream.

Mrs Nadine Vaughn

Mother of Charlie and George

There are many reasons why we like and trust Yasmina British Academy and continue sending both our daughters there.
When we first started, six years ago, Yasmina British Academy had a high academic rating and has consistently maintained its status over the years. We love the diversity and inclusion in both our daughter’s classes.

What keeps us there is the excellent location of the school, well equipped and a wholesome approach to the curriculum and teaching. Our experience with the teachers has been phenomenal. They are professional yet empathetic, firm yet caring and create a safe and fun learning atmosphere for our girls.

As a working mom, I cannot feel more relaxed, knowing my children’s education and future are in good hands.
