Secondary: Year 7 to 13

Regent's Secondary

Regent’s STEAM and Design Thinking programme as well as the range of other Signature Programmes continue to distinguish and inspire our pedagogy in Year 10 and 11.

Secondary at Regent

Our Secondary phase stays true to Regent’s Positive Education (PosEd) ethos, which is based on the development of academic excellence, character, values and wellbeing. The learning at Key Stage 3 (Year 7 to 9) provides a solid foundation to the next stage of a student’s educational journey in Key Stage 4 (Year 10 to 11) of the GCSEs and Sixth Form (Year 12 to 13) of the A-levels.

We have created an inspiring curriculum in Key Stage 3 (Year 7 to 9) where Maths, the Sciences and Technology converge with the Liberal Arts and Humanities to create tomorrow’s leaders and thinkers.
Students learn about the challenges of the workplace through guidance from our Careers Rising programme. They work on developing their resumé and job interview skills; take summer internships at leading partner corporates; and are mentored through Regent’s ‘Think & Thrive’ entrepreneurial speaker series.

In Year 10 and 11, students undertake a rigorous and stimulating two-year formal programme of the study of the internationally recognised GCSE / IGCSE qualification (the [International] General Certificate Secondary Examination from Cambridge University). We also offer students an alternative pathway of the BTECs (courses from the Business & Technology Education Council) or a hybrid of both GCSEs and BTECs.

KHDA Report

My role model is Elon Musk and to become a tech entrepreneur.
Regent has given me the skills and confidence to get there. In a variety of STEAM & Project-based Learning projects, I have worked with classmates learning to code in Python and Java, build robotic vehicles, and construct IoT sensors. We have won multiple competitions in the UAE and abroad for our tech projects and talent. Remember my name because I promise you will hear a lot more about me.

RIS EYFS student

Possibilities are infinite at Regent for a child.
There are no limits to let my child’s imagination grow at Regent. He has become extremely ambitious in his thinking and outlook and what he believes he can do, which is great. Children are encouraged to take chances, try anything and not be afraid.

The strong sense of community makes Regent more than just a great place for study.
It’s a great place for families to get to know each other and make new friends. The Regent community spirit is outstanding.
