PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE

Mr. Paul Saich

We know that digital and AI technologies are rapidly transforming the world we live in. Children today – the citizens of tomorrow - will need to learn new skills continuously and learn to adapt and evolve continually in order to thrive.

Schools are uniquely placed to make a difference to the future by offering an education that prepares students to thrive in a complex, messy world. Climate change, pandemics, geopolitical tensions and globalisation are challenges that we are experiencing right now. At Diyafah International School, we are focused on preparing students to be critical thinkers, innovative, adaptable, knowledgeable and principled in order to deal with these, and with future challenges.

The world that our students are growing into will also be full of opportunities. Many of those opportunities are still not defined. Those who thrive in the future will have to add value beyond what can be done by automated systems and intelligent machines. Our students today are growing into an increasingly digital world. They are likely to have to continually adapt to new ways of working and new occupations. Our job is to prepare our students for whatever the future holds.

Diyafah International School offers an exceptional education, combining the best of British education with a 21st century agenda, delivered in world class facilities by a team of expert teachers. We make no apology for being ambitious for all our students. We believe that every single student at Diyafah International School has it in them to be remarkable.

At Diyafah International School, every moment of every day is designed to optimise learning. Every moment of every day is an opportunity to let your light shine.
