The Middle School at BAKIS commences from 11 to 14 years (grades 5 – 8 in the US Curriculum system). The transitional years of middle school see a shift to more student-driven inquiry and action. We balance academics with increased social responsibility to prepare students to be caring, proactive members of the school community and beyond. In this phase, students have specialist teachers in all subjects: English, Mathematics, Science, Arabic, Islamic Studies, ICT, Social Studies, Art, Music, Quran, Physical Education and Moral Education. Personal and social development is recently introduced across all Grades from Grade 1 to 9 and is taught during social studies.
Elements of UAE heritage, history and Islamic culture are incorporated during teaching and learning activities across all disciplines.
