The roots of the Delta education system can be traced back to 1989 when Mr. Dennis and Mrs. Anita D’cruz received authorization from the Ministry of Social Affairs and co-founded Delta Nursery in the emirate of Sharjah. During the latter part of 1989, the nursery expanded its curriculum to include the kindergarten level - the Pre-K program. This turned out to be a very effective and successful initiative. Based on the repeated requests from our patrons and responding to the need, the Delta education system expanded its role in education.The vision of its co-founders was fulfilled in 1992, when the Ministry of Education, UAE, granted permission to establish Delta English School (DES) which offers the C.B.S.E. curriculum and caters to grade levels from kindergarten to Grade IV. The school when launched was in Ghafiya area, close to the Al Shaab Sports club. Even though DES was authorized to admit students up to Grade IV for that year, the grade level expansion was purposefully curtailed to lower grades for at least a couple of years. This was done in order to create a sound foundation for the students and to go to the higher grades with its own student population who were trained adequately. Students who gained admission to DES included individuals from North Africa, Sri-Lanka, Philippines, India, and the AGCC countries. It was these spectrums of student population that distinguished DES and built the foundation for student diversity that continues even to this day enabling DES to provide an international educational experience. In 1996, DES shifted its premise to a bigger facility in the Maysaloon area, opposite to the Sharjah Municipal Health Clinic. This facility was segregated into three blocks- Administration, Kindergarten and Grade I to VI respectively.Although the new premise sustained the growth in admissions, the limitations in facilities to accommodate the continuous stream of students caused the Delta education system to venture out in search of a custom made facility. This dream became a reality in September 2009, when a custom-designed building was created in the Muweilih area of Sharjah. This new state-of-the art building features world-class facilities ranging from libraries, to a student activity center which matches our tagline “Our Differentiation Mould Innovators” which define the core mission of DES.
