Curriculum & Assessments

Ta’allum Primary Schools offer a curriculum which is broad and balanced and which builds on the knowledge, understanding and skills of all children, whatever their starting points, as they progress through each Key Stage.

The Ta’allum curriculum incorporates elements of the Primary National Curriculum in its focus on core skills and depth of understanding; as well as best international practice in its global and creative approach to topics. This, alongside the Qatar National Curriculum, taught through Arabic medium subjects, ensures that students retain a respect and understanding for their national and religious heritage and their native language. Both the Cambridge Curriculum and the Ta’allum Curriculum are based on the National Curriculum for England. However the Ta’allum Curriculum approach ensures that students develop great depth of understanding and competence in skills at the same time as taking account of their second language learning needs, their cultural heritage and the global perspective Ta’allum aims to inculcate in its students. Children study English, Mathematics, Science, Art & Design, Technology, Computing and PE alongside Arabic, Islamic Studies, Holy Quran, Qatar History and PSHE/ Makarim lessons.
