We are beyond thrilled to be celebrating a record number of A* grades this year, including the largest number to date of pupils achieving three A* grades – a testament to the academic excellence for which we are known. This impressive achievement means that the majority of our pupils will take up places at their first-choice universities.
This year’s A Level results mark a new high for us, with A* grades soaring to 28%, almost double last year’s figure of 15%. More than half of all grades (52%) were at A*–A, and an outstanding 80% achieved A*–B. Congratulations to our hard-working pupils and teachers!
As well as supporting educational growth, the well-being of our pupils is a core part of the care we provide. The College is staffed by a full-time school nurse who provides health related services for all pupils throughout the day.
We work in partnership with the VPS Healthcare group one of the largest private healthcare companies in the UAE and the nurse is registered and licensed with Dubai Health Authority (DHA). The nurse provides first aid, administers medicine and, if necessary, refers pupils to medical practitioners or emergency services. They work with doctors and parents to manage the health of pupils who have chronic conditions such as asthma and diabetes.
The nurse also conducts weight, height and vision screening and co-ordinates the vaccination programme.
