Welcome Message from the Principal
“Learn with Purpose. Live with Compassion. Lead with Courage. This is more than our vision at Ash Mount School; it is our commitment to every learner.”
Welcome to Ash Mount School.
I am delighted to welcome you to our community.
At Ash Mount School, we believe every child deserves to be known, valued and inspired to achieve their personal best. We are creating a learning community where curiosity is encouraged, relationships matter and every child develops the confidence to learn with purpose, live with compassion and lead with courage.
As an IB Candidate School for the Primary Years Programme (PYP) and Middle Years Programme (MYP), we believe that communication lies at the heart of learning. Language opens doors. It enables children to build friendships, express who they are, explore new ideas and develop a deeper understanding of the world around them.
We are proud to be a truly international community where every language spoken by our children is valued and celebrated. Alongside developing excellent English and Arabic, we encourage every learner to maintain and take pride in their home language as an important part of their identity, culture and family life.
Our role is to help every child find their voice, communicate with confidence and develop genuine curiosity about the people, cultures and perspectives that shape our world. We know that language is about far more than speaking and writing—it is how children connect, think, question, collaborate and learn.
I look forward to welcoming you to Ash Mount School, introducing you to our exceptional team and sharing how we help every learner discover their potential, embrace new opportunities and truly learn with purpose, live with compassion and lead with courage.

Ash Mount School and the International Baccalaureate
At Ash Mount School, we believe the best learning begins with curiosity. Every child is encouraged to ask questions, think deeply, make meaningful connections, and develop the confidence to shape their own future.
Our broad and balanced international programme draws on internationally recognised standards, including the English National Curriculum, to provide academic rigour and clear progression, while embracing an inquiry-led approach and meeting the requirements of the UAE Ministry of Education. . This approach provides strong academic foundations while nurturing creativity, wellbeing, leadership, service, and international mindedness.
Learning is intentionally designed to be meaningful, connected and purposeful. Children investigate authentic questions, collaborate with others, reflect on their learning and apply their knowledge to real-world contexts. Alongside academic excellence, we develop the personal qualities that enable children to thrive in a rapidly changing world.
Guided by our vision to Learn with Purpose, Live with Compassion and Lead with Courage, we place equal importance on achievement, character and wellbeing. Every child is known, valued, challenged and inspired to become a confident, compassionate and future-ready learner.
As an IB Candidate School for the Primary Years Programme (PYP) and Middle Years Programme (MYP), we are developing a learning culture that reflects the values and philosophy of the International Baccalaureate. Inquiry, reflection, intercultural understanding and principled action are woven throughout the learning experience, helping children develop the knowledge, skills and attributes needed to make a positive difference in their communities and beyond.
Ash Mount School is a Candidate School* for the Primary Years Programme (PYP) and Middle Years Programme (MYP). We are pursuing authorisation as an IB World School.
IB World Schools share a common philosophy—a commitment to high-quality, challenging, international education that we believe is important for every child.
*Only schools authorised by the International Baccalaureate Organization can offer any of its four academic programmes: the Primary Years Programme (PYP), the Middle Years Programme (MYP), the Diploma Programme (DP), or the Career-related Programme (CP). Candidate status gives no guarantee that authorisation will be granted. For further information about the International Baccalaureate and its programmes, please visit www.ibo.org.
Learning Pathways at Ash Mount School
At Ash Mount School, learning is designed to help every child discover who they are, what they are passionate about, and how they can make a meaningful contribution to the world. Our Learning Pathways provide a coherent journey from the earliest years through to graduation, ensuring that every stage builds the knowledge, skills and character needed for future success.
Our broad and balanced international programme draws on internationally recognised standards, including the English National Curriculum, to provide academic rigour and clear progression, while embracing an inquiry-led approach and meeting the requirements of the UAE Ministry of Education. This provides children with strong academic foundations while encouraging curiosity, creativity and independent thinking.
Learning is intentionally connected across subjects, allowing children to see relationships between ideas and apply their understanding in authentic contexts. Whether investigating global challenges through science, exploring history through literature, designing sustainable solutions, or using mathematics to solve real-world problems, children learn to think critically, communicate confidently and collaborate effectively.
Beyond the classroom, our Learning Pathways extend into leadership, service, wellbeing, sustainability, sport, creativity, innovation and global experiences. Every opportunity is designed to help children develop the confidence to lead, the compassion to serve others and the resilience to embrace new challenges.
Guided by our vision to Learn with Purpose, Live with Compassion and Lead with Courage, our pathways ensure that every child leaves Ash Mount School not only with outstanding academic outcomes, but with the character, values and future-ready skills to thrive in an ever-changing world.

Part of an Established Education Group
Ash Mount School is part of Interstar Advisory Services, an established education group with more than 25 years of experience creating and leading high-quality schools across the UAE and India. Together, our schools have educated more than 16,000 children, with each school thoughtfully designed to reflect the unique needs and aspirations of its community.
Rather than following a single model, Interstar believes every school should have its own identity, culture and purpose. This philosophy has enabled each school to develop its own distinctive character while maintaining consistently high standards of education, leadership and care.
Today, the group includes schools recognised for their quality by education regulators across the UAE, including Victory Heights Primary School (KHDA Outstanding), Delhi Private School Dubai (KHDA Very Good), Delhi Private School Sharjah (SPEA Very Good) and South View School Dubai (KHDA Good).
At Ash Mount School, we are building on this proven foundation while creating something uniquely our own. We have appointed an experienced international leadership team and exceptional educators who share our vision of helping every child learn with purpose, live with compassion and lead with courage.
The wellbeing of children is at the heart of every decision we make. Rigorous safer recruitment procedures, robust safeguarding practices and a culture of continuous professional learning ensure that every child learns in a safe, supportive and inspiring environment.
As a new school, we are not constrained by tradition. Instead, we have the opportunity to combine decades of educational expertise with innovative thinking, creating a learning community designed for the future while benefiting from the experience and success of a trusted education group.
