Head of Science

Welcome to our thriving and expanding institution, nestled in the heart of Bahrain! Conveniently located for easy access from all areas of the island, our school is rapidly establishing itself as a formidable contender among local English curriculum institutions. Celebrating our 10th anniversary, we have transformed from a small primary school into a bustling campus that caters to over 1200 students from Nursery to Year 11, supported by a committed team of 200 staff members. Our purpose-built facility is equipped with all the essentials expected of a modern educational environment, fostering an optimal space for our students' learning experiences. We adhere to the English National Curriculum, with a majority of our skilled educators trained in the UK, infusing their expertise and enthusiasm into the classroom. Whether you are a newly qualified teacher or possess over 20 years of experience, we provide a supportive and nurturing atmosphere for our staff to develop and succeed. Among our amenities, we feature a small swimming pool designed for our Key Stage 1 learners, and our multi-purpose hall has recently undergone renovations to support a variety of sports, including netball, volleyball, 5-a-side football, basketball, and table tennis. In September 2025, we will unveil our new STEAM Centre, which will include cutting-edge science laboratories and technology rooms for our students to explore and learn in. Starting in September 2025, we will also be launching our Key Stage 5 program, offering a selection of BTECs ranging from Applied Science to Travel and Tourism. In subsequent years, we plan to introduce A-Levels alongside these qualifications to ensure our students achieve the best possible outcomes. We are committed to incorporating Technology and AI throughout our curriculum and are embarking on our journey to become a Microsoft Incubator School. This initiative will feature a one-to-one device program for students, integrating technology into their learning experiences across the campus. Additionally, we are working towards becoming the first ICDL delivery center in the Kingdom, allowing students (and their parents) to obtain this certification once they reach a certain stage in their education. Our staff benefits from a weekly two-hour CPD session dedicated to enhancing our teaching practices. We foster a culture of self-reflection and development within learning communities, encouraging growth without the fear of failure. I take pride in leading a dedicated leadership team that genuinely cares about each pupil and strives to help them become the best versions of themselves. If our values resonate with yours, we would be excited to hear from you as you join us on this remarkable journey! For more information, please visit our website at www.capitalschoolbahrain.com.
