While excellence is pursued, Repton espouses the notion that every child is important; every child is cherished, nurtured and prized for their individuality. What the school says We aim to give all our pupils the educational tools to succeed in whatever field they choose to further their path of learning. Through our encouragement of achievement and, equally important, independence of thought as well as action, pupils will develop a sense of personal responsibility and readiness for the demands of a rapidly changing world. We are proud of both our 21st century international nature and of the traditions and core values which have been derived from our partnership with Repton in Derbyshire, England. Repton School’s 450 year history has enabled it to develop a mature and effective school; we are fortunate to have been able to draw on the educational knowledge and expertise from our sister school and thus combine the very best of the new with the very best of the British educational system. Curriculum At Repton Abu Dhabi, we follow a British independent school curriculum, which incorporates elements of the English National Curriculum developed for an independent school in an international environment. Our curriculum at Repton is carefully designed to develop pupils as independent and lifelong learners as well as encouraging a spirit of intellectual curiosity and the pursuit of knowledge. We develop in our pupils the capacity for independent thought and action, and combine this with rational and responsible decision-making. Fees: Fee costs range from AED 55,000 for Foundation Stage 1 to AED 61,000 for Year 2 and are payable per term. From the head teacher "Academically selective and with high aspirations, we are a school that never loses focus of the individual child. Repton is a school where there are many blends: a blend of the pursuit of excellence with a broadening of the mind; a blend in the fulfilment of succeeding as an individual with the pleasure of working as part of a team; and a blend between the investment in self-discovery with an awareness of others. This, as our sister schools refer to, is the ‘wholeness’ that personifies a Repton education." Robert Relton, headmaster |
