Evaluator Response
The CIS evaluation team believes it was presented with an accurate picture of the Arabian Pearl Gulf School, albeit virtually. The documentation from the self-study was well prepared and organized. The team would have benefited from a tour of the school early in the visit, since a video tour of the school was never available. However, when the team was finally able to visit the school, virtually, it made things clearer for the team.
The overall impression was one of growth and improvement. It was clear to the team that all stakeholders in the school had taken all previous suggestions and recommendation from CIS and the self-study very seriously, indicating that future recommendations would be acted upon quickly. The school has learned a great deal about itself during the self-study process, as well as international standards for accreditation.
The decision-making at all levels in the school is driven by the school purpose and direction. Included in the guiding statements are a commitment to global citizenship which is reinforced throughout the school. Teaching is mostly traditional with teacher-directed lessons but learning is at the heart of the school. Student well-being has been clearly demonstrated during the pandemic and continues now that face-to-face classes have resumed. Attention to specific details about contacting prior schools directly and attention to emergency procedures will bring the school to the next level.
Plans for future developments are well-founded, and the school indicated that recommendations in the report will drive further positive change in the school.
The team wishes to that all those who were involved in the preparations and execution of this virtual visit. The logistical support the team received made for a smooth and efficient visit.
