📌 Overview

Metropole is a community school, offering the National Curriculum of England. We believe that a child's innate curiosity is their greatest strength. We navigate their minds encouraging them to discover and explore the vast amount of knowledge that we can provide. We continually challenge our students to question, inquire and be problem solvers in order to develop the necessary skills required to become successful learner, confident individuals, responsible citizens and effective contributors to our world. What is the school’s greatest quality/ strength? Located in Motor City, so convenient for Arabian Ranches, Dubai Sports City, Jumeirah Golf Estates and other newer developments between Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road and the Al Khail Road, GEMS Metropole is a schools that opened within a 5 minute drive of each other in September 2014. If success of a new school can be measured by the number of students joining in the first term, then the GEMS Marketing Machine can comfortably claim first prize. GEMS Metropole accommodates around 107 nationalities in the school, it’s a diverse school exposing each and every student to a wide range of cultural experiences. Metropole has an ELL department with specialized teachers offering English language support to students who are weak in English. When your child arrives they will have an assessment with the specialist and from there we will design a programme for them depending on their level of need. Some students will need withdrawal support out of class and some will need in-class support but this is dependent on the needs of the child. Once your child has started to make progress they are frequently evaluated and can progress in class with less targeted support. Metropole includes an inclusion centre / department for kids with additional needs, which may include anything from Dyslexia to autism etc. Some children might need a shadow teacher to assist him/her in the learning process. Students will sometimes have a one to one session in the inclusion centre with their specialized teacher but this will depend on the needs of the child. The department works very closely with parents of children with additional needs and you are a key part of the process, including helping us to support your child to make progress in line with their targets on their individual plans.... more
