Al-Rayan International School (ARIS) was established in September 2003. We are a mutually supportive and forward-thinking community. Our mission focuses on providing world class standards in education. The combination of our inclusive (rather than elitist) admissions policy with our internationally orientated curricula is an ideal framework for achieving all-round excellence. Students are supported wherever and whenever support is needed, and at the same time challenged to achieve their maximum potential. ARIS is an authorized Primary Years Programme (PYP) school, authorized April, 2016. We are a candidate school for the Middle Years Programme (MYP). In May 2015 we were authorized to offer the full IB Diploma Programme (IBDP), completing the final two years of the students' secondary level education, prior to university. Step by step, as practitioners of the IBDP, we are now realising the enormous potential it has for our students and their future lives.
