Description

MNS is a fully inclusive school. This means that we do not only accept students who score at the top of our entrance test. Our tests are able to determine if there is a barrier to full learning that may be keeping a student from achieving to the best of their ability.

There are children who are not achieving as they could because of a variety of reasons. At MNS we are able to assess for things like dyslexia, discalculia, dispraxia and autism to name a few potential barriers to independent learning. These are then referred so that we can best prepare a programme for these children to be successful and eventually enter their IGCSE exams. Inclusion means that these children are included in the general class activities and classes.

We are a multinational school and our student body represents over 50 nationalities – some of whom do not have English as a home language yet our language of instruction and assessment is in English. This department identifies the need for additional English language support at enrollment. Sessions are timetabled and most often while the class is busy with English tasks, the students are pulled-out into small groups (or individual if it is felt that the language gap requires this for a time) and engage with a special English development programme. Students are assessed constantly and the aim is for them to become sufficiently proficient in English as a language of teaching and learning so as to not require these classes any more.

Students with particular academic strengths or those with specific maths or language ability are identified by the teachers and engage in a cross-class programme that helps challenge and extend these students more. We expand our search and offerings into the arts too.

MNS is a special place for all who are a part of it. One only has to visit to us recognise that it is a happy place. We focus on producing a comfortable and safe environment where learning can take place and through this we constantly achieve fantastic results.

Our School prides itself on its high expectations and high aspirations for all the children and young people and their families who are part of our community here at MNS-Bahrain. Your child’s education is your first priority as well as ours. We see ourselves as partners in your child’s learning and in their personal development, offering a balanced curriculum that addresses each child as a unique person with his or her own strengths, needs, aspiration and interests.
