About Repton School Abu Dhabi
Repton Abu Dhabi is a prominent school on Reem Island in the heart of 'new Abu
Dhabi'. We've been here since ‎2013, growing quickly due to our popularity with
the local and expat community alike and our quality has been recognised though
the award of an 'Outstanding' rating by ADEK.
We follow a British independent school curriculum which incorporates elements
of the English Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum but allows highly
skilled teachers to develop a curriculum for an international environment.
Our greatest challenge as a school is to develop in our students the capacity
for independent thought and action, and then combine this with rational and
responsible decision-making.
Play underpins the Early Years Foundation Stage. It also underpins learning
and all aspects of children's development. Through play, children develop
language skills, their emotions and creativity, social and intellectual
skills. We value play and provide safe but challenging environments that
support and extend learning and development. The curriculum is delivered with
a child led focus and we encourage the students to share their interests which
are then included as learning opportunities in each classroom.
About the School
The Early Years are housed on Rose campus. A specially designed foundation
school campus catering for Nursery - Year ‎1. The facilities, including an
indoor swimming pool, multiple gymnasiums and outdoor playgrounds all cater
towards early years students. Staff and students also benefit from being an
Apple Distinguished School. The structure of the Early Years allows for middle
leadership opportunities, including; heads of department and heads of subject.
