MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL

What distinguishes New Generation International Schools (NG) from any other school is our continuous follow up on improvement and action plans. In order to move forward, we must evaluate, analyze and create action plans based on significant data. We highly believe in the importance of Data Driven Decisions (DDD). Therefore, we advocate and encourage our stakeholders’ positive and active participation through our online surveys. February’s Remote Learning Survey results showed high participation levels from our parents. Results revealed a wide range of areas that will help us take our school to the next level by looking through every detail for our upcoming learning platform(s). We thank you all for highlighting two crucial factors in the stability of our NG community, supportive teacher-student relationships and string active parent-admin communication means. This was a clear alignment of our school-parent-child triangle that we all strive to achieve for our students’ best interest. We would also like to draw your attention to the notion that all our teachers and instructional leaders have been working around the clock to adjust and update our teaching and learning strategies for in-classroom and online methodologies to meet the continuous change happening around us in this very first academic year of its kind. Through NG’s systematic, periodical, and spiral curriculum review and application, our faculty members are working diligently on preparing our students to meet next year’s grade level expectations.

We would like to thank you for your active participation in your child’s learning and wish you all a blessed Ramadan and a Happy Easter!
