| Comments / Description |

The English Academy [TEA] provides a British learning experience that encourages students to be successful learners, confident individuals and responsible citizens with a global perspective. TEA offers the luxury of small class sizes providing a friendly and family orientated teaching environment.
Established in 1993, it is a private co-educational international school, teaching students from the age of 3 to 18. The English National Curriculum is followed and Public examinations are taken at IGCSE, GCSE, Advanced Subsidiary [AS] and Advanced [A] level through the examination boards of the Edexcel and Cambridge in the UK.
British qualified staff are recruited on overseas contracts and are supported by locally appointed colleagues who teach Arabic and Islamic Studies according to the Government syllabus. Particular emphasis is placed on the teaching of Arabic in the first three years, thus allowing students to develop totally bilingually.
TEA is a well equipped school with an English and Arabic library, computer rooms, science laboratories, AV rooms, a multi-purpose hall and separate specialist music, art and nutrition departments and a separate 6th Form area. A wide range of Extra-curricular activities include the school band, drama club, the International Award, the International Global Citizens award, and a variety of sports.
Applicants for Kindergarten are interviewed and all other children submit previous school records and are tested in English and Mathematics.
