Welcome to the PDO International School, where ‘Passion for Learning’ is at the centre of all our activities.

 

We offer our 300 children of 30 different nationalities a friendly, high quality international learning environment.

 

For Language and Mathematics, the children from the International Stream follow the English Primary Frameworks Curriculum whilst the children in the Dutch Stream follow the Dutch Curriculum. For all other subjects we have implemented the very successful International Primary Curriculum (the fastest growing curriculum in the world with 1,300 schools in over 66 countries).

 

Children at the PDO School are happy and engaged learners. The IPC’s engaging approach also encourages parental involvement as children, inspired by their learning, talk freely to parents about what they’ve learnt at school and often choose to continue their learning at home. Parental involvement is important for the learning process of the children. During the year we will keep you informed through learning focused letters, extended learning ideas, and end of unit "Exit Point’ events.

 

You are welcome to read the information on this website and please contact us if you need more information. Your ideas and suggestions are also most welcome.

 

May we wish you and your children a wonderful school year for 2011-2012!

 

Kind regards,

Peter Wassink

Through the Greater Ras Al Hamra Township Development, we are striving to improve the essential services we provide to our employees and their families. The building of a brand new school in the Ras al Hamra vicinity, which I fully support and plans for which will soon be presented to the PDO Board, will go a long way towards achieving this goal. Although I have grown up children (and too old for the PDO School!), I understand the needs, and I also want to take this opportunity to commend the teachers and administrators for a job well done.

I reiterate that we consider the PDO School important and integral to the future of the company and its family. We will continue to strive to maintain the quality of the nursery and primary education provided to our children.
