We never lose sight of the real perspective – that of shaping our students into caring and responsible citizens. We believe that education is a preparation for life. We explore a variety of options through which our children can develop their curiosity and confidence.Parents’ involvement in their children’s education is of paramount importance to us. We have a strong parent-school community and parent views and suggestions form an important base for our strategies and plans for child-centred enrichment.We are sure that you and your child will enjoy your experience at Our Own English High School, Sharjah.Dr. Farooq Ahmad WasilExecutive Principal
