Home School Agreement
- At Al Manar International School we continue to build a strong partnership between staff, parents, and carers as we know this is important in helping children to achieve and to enjoy learning. We are determined to create an inclusive culture of learning where all children will be challenged in their thinking, achieve to the best of their abilities, and strive to become lifelong learners.
- We will empower our children to become respected citizens to enable them to make valuable contributions locally, globally and to contribute to our world’s sustainable future. This can be done most effectively when all staff, parents, and children understand their responsibilities and work together towards the same goals, as detailed in our Home School Agreement.
