Academic Leadership & Vision

WELCOME FROM THE SCHOOL DIRECTOR

Madame Chantal Algharabally - School Director

“Choosing the road of Education is a difficult one but also a wonderful one. This is always the first thing I say when I interview teachers for recruitment. At Kuwait National English School, we strive to maintain a warm human dimension, where everyone knows each other and all children are known by their names.”

“Parents, children, and staff consider Kuwait National English School as a family of professionals where each one feels that it is not only their school but also their second home. My main duty is to be responsible for all the children from Early Years, their first step in school, to the last step in tertiary education before joining university.”

“We set realistic, attainable goals and instill respect for universal moral values. With recognized British accreditations and small class sizes, our students are fully prepared for academic distinction and responsible global citizenship.”

Early Years

Early Years

Every child deserves the best possible start and the support that enables them to fulfill their potential. Children develop quickly in the early years and a child’s experiences between birth and age 5 have a major impact on their future life chances.
