Al Waha

At BISR we remain committed to the ongoing development and update of our campus facilities. We are delighted to share with you our new campus development which is due to open before December 2024. 

Our Al Waha Campus will be the new home to our current Al Hamra student population aged 3 to 18, where we will continue to build upon the excellent foundations laid at our Al Hamra campus. Our youngest students follow the English Early Years Foundation Stage programme with students in Years 1 to 9 following the English National Curriculum, which is adapted and enriched to reflect our local and international context. Students in Years 10 and 11 follow a two-year programme of General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) subjects and our Year 12 and 13 students complete Advanced Level (A Level) studies. Students achieve well above average examination outcomes and go on to study at prestigious Universities and Colleges around the world.


Al Waha campus is a purpose-built campus of 30,000 sq metres within a 50, 000 sq metre site. Learning spaces are large and well designed, with a range of exciting features to support our learning, wellbeing, and enrichment programmes.  There are separate Primary and Senior sections within a four-storey high building with discrete specialist facilities for the STEAM element of our curriculum. Additionally, sixth form students have their own study area. Shared facilities include a school auditorium, state of the art sports facilities, swimming pool, drama and music rooms and a large, well-stocked library.


The school will make use of a range of new technology systems to support learning and ensure the safety of our BISR community. There are dedicated ICT suites as well as a Wi-Fi enabled campus for our one-to-one iPad programme for Years 2-6 and a bring your own device programme for Senior School students.
The campus has been designed with flexible  spaces to support changing learning needs over time  whilst creating an atmosphere conducive to learning. 

 

Progress

Our new campus will still be situated in the Al Hamra region of Riyadh
