Our comprehensive American curriculum is designed to promote the academic, physical and emotional well-being of our pupils.
As a leading American curriculum school in the UAE with robust sports, arts and other extracurricular activities, Al Yasat’s approach to education is holistic. However, academic excellence is at the heart of what we deliver. We uphold high standards coupled with current modern teaching methods and facilities hinged with tolerance and brotherhood, aligned with the culture and rich heritage of the UAE.
There is a range of curriculum subjects as well as an extensive range of co- and extra-curricular activities held at lunchtimes and after school.
Our Curriculum
Our educational framework is based on the American curriculum enriched with international standards and characteristics. The curriculum has been aligned, modified and enhanced creatively to meet the vision of the school and the requirements of the UAE. This approach has earned us our reputation as one of the best American curriculum schools in the UAE.
Students are motivated to be responsible global citizens and sensitized to concerns such as environmental conservation, awareness and respect for other cultures. The school strongly advocates integration by encouraging an understanding of Emirati values, culture and aspirations.
