This campus is fairly new and purpose built and the housing is walking distance from the school. This is a new compound in the heart of Sharjah about 30 minutes from Dubai.

The school campuses opened about 3 years ago and have since to increase in student population. Most of the teachers are from western trained countries, although there will also be teachers from local countries such as Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt etc
