About Us

At Star International, we provide the highest quality of research informed teaching using a rich variety of resources and technology, underpinned by the National Curriculum for England. 

We actively encourage internationalism; while believing deeply in the values of the ambient community and country. We encourage our pupils to develop a greater appreciation and understanding of a wide variety of cultures and traditions yet still value highly the family school atmosphere in which they will feel known, secure and recognised as individuals. 

Our commitment is to provide a community of learners, young and old, where parents, teachers and children work as a team to enable all to develop their skills to the best of their abilities and reach their full potential. SIS Al Twar provides a community oriented school in the area that offers a vital service to the residents, an excellent centre of sustainable learning for children where they are encouraged to lead fulfilled lives by accepting challenges in all spheres in a safe and civilized environment.

Our children are held to the highest standards, both personally and academically, and are highly motivated pupils with a keen desire to learn and excel.  At Star International School we follow the British curriculum throughout the school, adapting to suit the culture and requirements within the UAE and our diverse student body.
