Together, our 56 schools educate more than 51,000 students from kindergarten through to the end of secondary / high school.

Nord Anglia International School Al Khor (NAISAK)

Our Foundation Stage along with the whole school has completed an extensive review of its vision and values. We have made huge strides in providing a play-based learning environment both in the classroom and outside and it is still evolving. We have a shared vision and work closely as a team both within our classrooms and beyond. Our children are amazing and are a great source of inspiration. Our curriculum has changed to become more child led, moving towards ‘in the moment’ planning. We use guidance from Early Years Foundation Stage and Development Matters and focus on the prime areas especially in Communication and Language. We are fortunate to be well resourced as we continue to develop, providing children with the experiences and opportunities in their learning to achieve firm foundations in their early education to prepare them for the next stage and beyond in an ever changing global world.
