Durham School Dubai

At Durham Dubai we have a very clear mission supported by our aims and values. These all add up to help us build in each and every one of our students ‘confidence for life’.

So, what should students and parents expect to see and feel when they come through the doors at Durham Dubai?

First, we believe that the students are the stars; they are our reason for Durham Dubai and they are at the centre of everything we do and every decision we take. Next, we are a ‘hands on’ kind of school – if a job needs doing, we all contribute: staff, students and parents, no matter what the task or what our role is within the school. Importantly, we are positive, optimistic school. We meet challenges head on and look for solutions in the belief that they can always be found. We look for the best in people. We expect the best from our students and staff and as a result, will be rarely disappointed.

At Durham Dubai we are also humble and we accept that we all get things wrong from time to time. We recognise when something has gone wrong, we apologise, we fix it, we learn from it and we move on.

And finally, we are kind, accepting of each other, supportive of one another and appreciative of all that a person has to offer.
