Our Vision

Al Batinah International School (ABIS) provides the community a high quality education that empowers students to be  compassionate life long learners and global citizens who positively influence the world.

Our Mission

The ABIS community will challenge and inspire all students to reach their full potential by providing an innovative and inquiry based education that supports well being and lifelong learning.

The ABIS Community Pact

Challenge Yourself, Involve Yourself, Be Your Best.

Equity, Diversity, Inclusion

ABIS is committed to fostering an inclusive and equitable environment for our school community. Our goal is to ensure that everyone in our community feels respected, valued, and supported.
Equity
Equity embodies the principle of providing every student with the necessary resources and assistance tailored to their unique needs and circumstances. We acknowledge that not all students begin with the same advantages, and some may require extra support to overcome obstacles and realize their maximum potential.
Diversity
Diversity is regarded as a valuable asset, and we celebrate the diverse cultural, linguistic, and ethnic backgrounds of our students, staff and families. We believe that a varied learning environment enriches perspectives and fosters empathy and understanding.
Inclusion
Inclusion is fostered by establishing and nurturing an environment where all students feel embraced, esteemed, and empowered to actively participate in all aspects of school life. We recognize that ensuring inclusion demands dedication and attention, and it is the collective responsibility of everyone to build a warm and inclusive community.

We are incredibly lucky to be able to focus all of our energy and resources around offering students the very best education that we can. Our strategic planning processes are all focussed around continuous improvement and driving the school closer to its goal.

In our CIS Membership Accreditation visit, the team commented on the close alignment between the school’s mission & vision and reality.
