A safe place

As a mum of three children at Star, I have seen how much they love learning here. Each of them is happy and excited to go to school every day. The teachers really care and make sure my kids are supported. I feel reassured knowing my children are in a positive and safe place where they are encouraged to do their best.

I never thought much about swimming until PE lessons at school, where I discovered my passion and talent for it only to soon win gold in the 100m backstroke and silver in the butterfly at the Emirates International Swimming Cup. I now have secured a spot as well on the swim team.

Focus on learning

Since joining Star, my child has grown so much. The teachers are always kind, approachable, and ready to support both the children and parents. I love how the school focuses on learning through hands-on experiences. It keeps my child curious and excited to discover new things. I’m really happy with the education my child is getting here.

True inclusion starts with belonging

Inclusion is not about fitting in, it’s about creating a space where every learner belongs, thrives, and is celebrated for exactly who they are.

Being part of the first-ever musical at Star was an amazing experience that I will never forget. Having the opportunity to play the lead role challenged me in so many ways. It helped me grow in confidence and also in knowing how hardwork and fun can both come together.
