Welcome to Manor Primary School
Manor Primary School (MPS) is, by Dubai standards, a small primary school, catering for students from Foundation Stage 1 to Year 6. Our school is ideally located on Sheikh Zayed Road, within the prime residential area of Al Safa 1. We provide an attractive, well maintained environment and place a high priority on fostering home and school partnerships to promote student learning.
Our school opened with 54 founding students and will grow to a maximum capacity of 40 places in each of the Foundation Stages and 60 in Years 1 to 6. We have affiliations with local nurseries which creates a natural progression from these establishments to MPS. Even at full capacity we will be a small community and remain a school where every student is known individually.
Our students are taught in well organised, purposeful and inviting classrooms. There are positive and affirming relationships between teachers and students as well as amongst the students themselves. Teachers have high expectations for their students’ learning and behaviour.
All teachers at MPS provide a variety of educational opportunities through well planned lessons which have a clear focus on learning. Our teachers share the lesson objectives with students and provide informative feedback which includes the students’ next steps for progression. Students are grouped both within and across classes to meet their learning needs. School work is made dynamic and relevant through integration with different subject areas in addition to linking core skills, such as reading and writing.
Our staff and students are supported by a Governing Board which provides clear direction in the management of the school. Trustees work with teachers, students and the wider community to ensure priority is given to meeting the needs of our students. This is reflected in the Board’s comprehensive strategic and annual plans.
Our school has a supportive and integrated parent community. Parents are kept well informed about school matters and how they can be involved in their child’s learning.
We welcome you to our community and we would love the opportunity to showcase our school to you.
