Bright Learners Private School, the latest American school in the UAE located in Al Rashidiya, Dubai, has announced its Open House for families to visit and learn about the recently opened institution. After a tumultuous start for schools in Dubai, as many had to remain with closed doors and begin with an online learning approach, Bright Learners successfully welcomed students to its newly renovated and spacious campus in September of 2020, marking the official open of the school for its first year. As the second school term rolls in, the American school will be hosting its first Open House in an unconventional manner, in line with the UAE’s precautionary measures to combat COVID-19 and keep students safe.
This year, Bright Learners Private School will be taking an atypical approach to Open House Day due to the pandemic, which is usually a day filled with activities where families may roam the halls, meet staff of the institution and parents. With the aim to provide parents with as close an experience as possible to a traditional Open House day, Bright Learners Private School has organized a COVID-19-friendly appointment-based program where parents can select dates and times that work best for their schedules to visit the new American school. Starting on the 6th of December up until the first few weeks of the second term in January, those interested will be allowed to make Open House appointments with the Bright Learners administration to tour facilities, meet teachers, and even see students in-action if chosen to come during school hours. Bookings can be made either through email or Whatsapp, at the convenience of the families to secure a spot during Open House.
Offering its students a US Common Core Standards based curriculum aligned with the Massachusetts State Standards in combination with the UAE’s National Curriculum for Arabic and Islamic Studies, Bright Learners Private School will help respond to the request of parents in the UAE looking for a balanced curriculum. Complementing the core curriculum, Bright Learners Private School has recruited professionals from all ends of the United States to fill the positions of various staff members from teachers to the Principal, giving students the opportunity to have an authentic American education in Dubai led by native teachers with a US background.
Meeting the demands of the current hard-hit market, Bright Learners Private School has launched a series of offers and payment plans for parents looking for financial relief without compromising on quality education. While Bright Learners has already molded its tuition structure to be one of the most modestly-priced private schools in Dubai with all-inclusive yearly fees ranging from AED 22,750 for Pre-K to AED 27,750 for Grade 4, the school continues to bring solutions for families in need of flexibility. To continue helping parents and work with their schedules, all grade levels from Pre-K to Grade 4 are full school days with the same hours for drop-off and pick-up. In addition, the school is providing parents with monthly payment plans, allowing for a spread-out payment structure. An economical tuition fee met with its various offers and a monthly payment plan are sure to assist current residents and new-arriving families alike with a smooth, stress-free transition into the new school.
Dedicated to teaching students face-to-face, the school has also adopted a multitude of safety measures taken on with the cooperation of staff members, offering both an affordable and safe education to students. In order to administer 100% face-to-face learning, the school has spread classes and students evenly throughout the buildings to maintain a 30% capacity at all times, and to continue implementing these measures outside of the school grounds, the school has hired buses to transport students to and from school to ensure 30% capacity is also met off-campus. Every day teachers are required to wear face shields and masks to ensure students and faculty are able to form close bonds while still maintaining safety measures such as daily temperature checks when entering the school grounds. Additionally, standard daily COVID-19 precautions are being taken upon entering the grounds of the school. Bright Learners has trained health and safety officials on campus who will take on the task of measuring the temperatures of all those who enter the institution from their vehicles as well as upon entry, and will continuously sterilise equipment, classrooms, and facilities to rid areas of any bacteria built-up throughout the day.
Bright Learners Private School’s mission is to nurture creative, inspired, collaborative, and innovative learners who are equipped with the tools, knowledge, and skills to make a positive impact on themselves and their environment. Through a comprehensive education, parents can expect their children to receive learning experiences designed to promote their maximum potential. Bright Learners Private School’s goal is to teach young minds how to become global citizens, be curious about their world, think critically, solve problems, and become independent learners. Prospective members of the school’s community will immediately notice they are dedicated to academic excellence and ensuring a bright future for every child.
