ALDAR Academies

Due to the rapid expansion of the local population and the proposals by Aldar Properties PJSC to deliver a significant number of projects in the coming years, there is a pressing need for increased access to good quality education provision in Abu Dhabi. As a result, Aldar Properties PJSC created a Limited Liability Company (LLC) called Aldar Academies in the spring of 2007.

ALDAR Academies is a wholly owned subsidiary of ALDAR Properties PJSC and was formed to provide high quality education provision in support of ALDAR communities. Staff in ALDAR Academies includes managers with extensive experience of education in the Middle East, as well as staff who have delivered large scale school design and build programmes’ and the management of all aspects of education on a national scale.

ALDAR Academies is planning to build and operate 20 new schools with a capacity for 20,000 students in Abu Dhabi within the next five years. The first school(The Pearl Primary School), opened in September 2007 and our second school Al Yasmina, will open in September 2008, both these schools will offer an International British Curriculum but dependant on the communities we are serving this will vary and we may offer the International Baccalaureate, American Curriculum and Arabic Curriculum where appropriate.

The Pearl Primary School is a British Curriculum school in the centre of Abu Dhabi educating young minds from Foundation Stage (Kindergarten) to Year 6.

Our school is a vibrant and dynamic community in itself. In addition to fully-equipped classrooms, the school features complementary learning facilities such as our extensive library and computer suites as well as comprehensive sports facilities including a swimming pool, football pitch, netball court, and sports hall.

Along with the core subjects, lessons in French, Arabic and Islamic studies are also given, helping to develop cross-cultural understanding and produce genuine international citizens. Furthermore, a wide range of after school activities is available to complete the well rounded learning experience.

Al Yasmina School

Located within Al Raha Gardens adjacent to Abu Dhabi Golf Club, Al Yasmina school has a capacity for over 900 nursery and primary pupils and 1,000 secondary pupils.

Our new school will offer an International British Curriculum to children from 3 to 18 years. The school will open in September 2008 at which point it will cater for children from Foundation 1 (KG1) to year 9. In subsequent years it will 'grow through' to Year 13. The adoption of an all-age school model delivers many advantages including continuity of education and the elimination of any slippage associated with primary to secondary transfer. The large school role enables the provision of a broad and balanced curriculum which meets the individual strengths and talents of pupils.

In addition to a wide range of academic classrooms and administrative areas, the school also provides excellent specialist facilities. The school provides a 25-metre pool as well as a smaller learner pool, a large gymnasium, two junior halls, an activity studio, two Astroturf pitches and recreational areas. There are also separate and secure play areas for each of the different school stages.

The school places a high value on creative arts and technology and sees many benefits in the interrelationship between these subjects. Our state-of-the-art Design Technology department provides specialist areas for learning activities relating to food preparation, resistant materials and electronics. Our performance spaces include an auditorium, amphitheatre, and drama studio and recital rooms.

Along with the core subjects, lessons in French, Arabic and Islamic studies are also given, helping to develop cross-cultural understanding and produce genuine international citizens. Furthermore, a wide range of after school activities is available to complete the well rounded learning experience.

Al Yasmina School is your opportunity to offer your child the very best education environment Abu Dhabi has to offer.
