Welcome to Dubai British School Mira, a community school which keeps people at the heart. Our guiding philosophy of ‘Enjoy, Aspire, Achieve’ sets our tone and direction: ensuring children are happy and enjoy school, in order to set and achieve their individual goals.
As Founding Principal, I am both honoured and excited to lead DBSM, the fourth branch of the well-reputed Dubai British Schools group, to excellence, and as such make the following commitments to the community:
-
- Wellbeing will be prioritised through all actions we take and decisions we make, and we will foster inclusion and diversity, consistently.
- We will provide the highest standard of education so that children will thrive academically, socially and emotionally. We will provide focused and relevant training for teachers to support their professional development, and will host regular sessions to deepen parental understanding of our approaches.
- We will listen actively to our parents, teachers and children to ensure everyone has a voice in shaping the direction of the school.
- We will operate transparently, so all are aware of the school’s vision and associated steps, decisions that are made and so that parents feel fully informed regarding their child’s learning and progress.
- We will provide enrichment opportunities and exciting events to ensure the school becomes a hub of the community that brings people together. We will promote the notion of ‘social contribution’ and encourage all of our community members to take steps to make the school, surrounding community and wider- world a better, more sustainable, place.
I believe that fostering positive relationships is the key to success, and will actively engage in getting to know each individual child and their family. I am passionate about removing barriers for children, whatever they may be, to set them on the pathway to success. I recognise that each child is on their own, unique journey, and will lead the team in empowering children to seek this path and build confidence in working towards their goals. Furthermore, we will provide inclusive and supportive classroom environments that are well-equipped for teaching children the skills required for their futures.
I look forward to working in partnership with you.
