Message from the Principal
Welcome to TKS Elementary School!
Our Elementary School identity has been fostered and forged from the global challenges of the past few years. We have demonstrated resilience, innovation and collaboration to experience incredible success and growth. Our students have proven to be resilient, engaged and enthusiastic.
Through the IB Primary Years Programme (PYP), we provide opportunities for students to develop an understanding of the essential concepts, skills, knowledge and attitudes that will enable them to be lifelong learners. Our teachers focus on promoting student agency and nurturing our students’ voice and choice. We know that students who engage actively in their learning are also more adaptable, responsible and develop a deeper understanding and love of learning.
We have adopted internationally benchmarked standards in all curriculum areas, including following the Alternative Education Resource Organization (AERO) standards in mathematics and English language arts. AERO’s goal is to advance student-driven, learner-centered approaches to education.
Our students study mathematics, English language arts and their units of inquiry with their homeroom teacher, as well as Arabic, music, arts, physical education and an enrichment block with specialist teachers.
Over the past few years, we’ve modified and added to our elementary campus to make our learning spaces more collaborative and flexible. This supports our ongoing initiative of personalizing learning and meeting the needs of each student, ensuring their sense of belonging and well-being.
Our highly qualified teachers include a number of specialist support staff to ensure our curriculum is accessible across our diverse school community. We offer a wide-ranging extracurricular program that further enriches the social and emotional development of each student. Our teachers are dedicated to promoting students’ welfare, progress, and personal growth and individual interests.
Whether you are a current, or prospective member of our school community, we welcome you to our school!
