Comments / Description  
As an outstanding, high-performing school, The British School - Muscat is one of the leading schools in the Middle East. It is a not-for-profit, non-selective, co-educational, British international day school that provided a comprehensive and balanced education to a mix of approximately 900 English speaking expatriate pupils aged 3 - 18 (47 nationalities, 58% British). The school follows an enhanced National Curriculum for England and produces exceptionally and consistently high National Curriculum, GCSE and A Level results, placing it in the top 3% of schools in England. The school was last inspected in March 2009 against Ofsted's Section 5 inspection framework and was judged by inspectors to be "an outstanding school."
