Hope Centre was founded in 2001, as the need arose for specialized education programs that could be successful for students, cost effective, a passion & pride for the AJ Group to administer. With these guidelines in mind we set about designing our programs. The result is the addition of this soft dimension to the Al Ain Juniors Group of Schools. Since the beginning of Hope Centre to the present day, the Group's mission and the unique instructional model has never wavered. Building on our success with the most difficult-to-educate students, AJ Group currently provides services to thousands of children, in 5 Institutions, including the Hope Centre for Special Needs in Al Ain, UAE
Our aim is to develop, guide & nurture every individual's potential, to become a full and equally valued member of society.

Our vision is to provide individualised education that addresses students' physical, mental, social and emotional needs, in their unique learning styles, that will lay a foundation for a good and useful life.
