Vision & Mission

SCHOOL VISION

Empowered learners that pursue continuous growth and positively impact their world.

 

SCHOOL MISSION

To nurture our learners by engaging them in innovative and challenging 21st century experiences and skills that foster well-being and a growth mindset in a diverse community.

 

DEFINITION OF LEARNING

Learning is a life-long process of developing knowledge and building understanding. Learners engage with and reflect on new information and experiences, to make meaning and connections to the world around them.

 

LEARNING PRINCIPLES

  • Learning Principle #1: Every part of the day is an opportunity to learn, grow and be reflective.
  • Learning Principle #2: Learning is an active process in which learners are engaged in building knowledge and constructing meaning.
  • Learning Principle #3: Learning opportunities encourage students to become responsible and independent learners.
  • Learning Principle #4: Learning is relevant and connected to the ‘real world’, preparing confident learners for their life and a successful future.
  • Learning Principle #5: Innovative learning opportunities provide for learners’ differing needs and understanding.

 

STATEMENT ON INTERNATIONALISM

At English Modern School Doha we embrace internationalism through acceptance of differences, values and beliefs in our community. At EMS we believe that:

  • Education inspires a love of learning and develops an enquiring mind. The full potential of each individual in the learning community is achieved through commitment, dedication and striving for excellence
  • The education of students must be broad, balanced and integrated, and comprises academic, creative, physical, social and moral development
  • Effective learning comes from the understanding of concepts, content and practical skills in each area of study and how these relate to each other and apply to the outside world
  • Balancing academic learning with creative, physical and social activities is fundamental to the further development of pupils’ self-expression, self-discipline, independence, responsibility and self-confidence
  • The engagement of the school in social and environmental projects both within and beyond the school contributes to the development of informed, responsible and active citizens.

 

GUIDING PRINCIPLES

In order to fulfil its mission, The English Modern School aims to:

  • Offer a broad, balanced, coherent and integrated curriculum that will prepare students for each stage of their education until university entrance
  • Offer an appropriate and relevant curriculum where students are actively engaged in the learning process
  • Recognize and develop the potential of each individual
  • Provide a safe, stimulating, and friendly learning environment
  • Develop each student’s oral and written fluency in English
  • Provide opportunities for the development of individual student’s talents and interests
  • Achieve appropriate and acceptable behaviour and moral standards through self discipline, supportive relationships and the sense of mutual respect and responsibility
  • Encourage student responsibility and leadership, and involve students in the decision making processes of the school
