Welcome from Principal

It is an honor to be the Principal of Bahrain Bayan Primary School. The school is outstanding and provides wonderful bilingual learning opportunities for its students, based on educational best practices and experienced through the rich Bahraini culture.

In Primary School, we are fortunate to have high quality teachers whose professionalism is evident in their caring about what is best for students both academically and personally. Moreover, our teachers have a hunger to keep on learning and improving themselves. Their collaborative spirit and their collegial support for each other makes them a joy to work with. 

I consider myself to be very privileged to be part of this community and I would especially like to thank the parents for their support and for the trust they have shown us. We take the responsibility of looking after their children very seriously and will always endeavor to do what's best for them.

We look forward to a wonderful academic year ahead.

Curriculum

Throughout Primary School our curriculum is committed to students achieving mastery in both English and Arabic. Students spend half of each day in an Arabic classroom, and the other half in an English classroom.

Grade offerings throughout the primary program are based on the AERO standards in English, Math, and Science. These standards are aligned with research-based trends in worldwide curriculum development. AERO provides a framework for curriculum consistency across grades K-12 and for stability of curriculum.

Teachers collaborate and develop units of study grounded in the standards so that students experience complete, in-depth, and thorough learning.

Bahrain Bayan School also offers a strong Arabic curriculum and the required government syllabus in Social Studies, Religion, and Government. Music, Art, Technology and Physical Education also play a strong role in the curriculum.

All curricular offerings are supported by appropriately aligned resources and the school’s library with a collection of 38,000 items (approximately 17,800 of those items in Arabic and 20,650 in English). Curricular experiences are supported through field trip opportunities throughout the primary years and an extensive after-school activities program is intentionally aligned to enhance the day time classroom curriculum.

Bayan Leads
