An introduction to South View School

We take a look at all that South View School has to offer its pupils.

“Every child deserves a champion – an adult who will never give up on them, who understands the power of connection, and insists that they become the best that they can possibly be.”

Rita Pierson’s quote is a superb starting point for defining the essence of South View School, an international, British curriculum school located in the heart of Dubailand. We are devoted to developing remarkable, problem-solving leaders from FS1 through to Year 11, whilst enabling passionate teachers the flexibility, trust and support to build an environment of curiosity, investigation and exploration.

Finding each child’s voice

From small beginnings, South View School has built, and continues to build its identity as a school that embraces the extraordinary, promoting the idea of “what if,” “you can” and “why not” in all children. Young people of all ages are listened to and encouraged to have a voice, whether that is through student councils or through one-to-one exchanges with peers and teachers.

The right mindset

The focus of the school centres on inquisitiveness, innovation, leadership and discovery, as well as appreciating and prioritising the power and strength of kindness to form positive relationships and a growth mindset. Students are encouraged to seek challenge, to reflect, further innovate, improve and blossom. This nurtures children who aren’t afraid of failure or taking a “wrong” step, but view making mistakes as leaning and growth opportunities that develop confidence and enable success.

Open and curious

Discovering talents, exploring new concepts and developing new perspectives are embraced and celebrated all in our learning community. We are a progressive, reflective, motivated and kind school with a broad range of students who are tomorrow’s leaders in training!
