Secondary School

Mini Mathew

Head of Secondary Department

Welcome to the Secondary School at Al Salam. Ours is a dynamic and proactive team, brimming with ideas that are unique and practical! We are one of the few recognized ‘Good’ schools in the UAE. This being the 30th anniversary of our school, we are proud to acknowledge the solid reputation we enjoy for our high academic standards, and wide range of co-curricular programmes.

In the Secondary Phase, we are acutely aware of the gigantic strides being made in the field of technology and education, and it is our constant endeavour to embrace and lead them so that our students benefit from the best practices in teaching and learning. As a result, our students reap the benefits from our dynamic, enthusiastic and committed staff who apply varied approaches, techniques and styles to ensure the highest possible levels of attainment and progress is achieved throughout the delivery of our curriculum from Year 7 to Year 12. In addition to offering an outstanding curriculum leading to impressive examination results, students also excel in other areas including sport, musical opportunities, public speaking, art, entrepreneurship and a range of in-house and inter–school competitions.

Our students are noted for their discipline and impeccable manners, for which they have been commended during all our school inspections. High standards of behaviour, appearance, attendance and punctuality are an expected starting point from our student community. We are a proud community of learners, immersed in an ethos of determination, kindness, achievement, celebration and fun.

Everything that we do at Al Salam is focused on the development of the independent, flexible learner, who is fully prepared for advanced study and work in the ever changing demands of the 21st century. I have the highest expectations of both our staff and the whole student body. Central to this vision is the drive and determination to ensure that everyone maximizes their potential and performance. Through outstanding learning and teaching, we focus our energies on developing the “whole” individual—the social, emotional, intellectual and physical being—and therefore nurture the self-confidence and risk-taking skills that students need to become enthusiastic life-long learners.

We care about the partnerships we develop with our parents, teachers and community members. In short, we care about YOU. I encourage you to visit us and to experience first-hand our welcoming staff and outstanding teaching faculty.

I hope that you find browsing through our website both useful and informative. I would like to take this opportunity to wish you a happy, fulfilling and successful year.
