  • Students’ achievement
  • Students’ personal and social development, and their innovation skills
  • Teaching and assessment
  • Curriculum
  • The protection, care, guidance and support of students
  • Leadership and management
ADEK rating for private and public schools
ADEK rating standard for both private and public schools

Currently, Al Ittihad National Private School Al Ain ADEK rating is ‘Good.’ INPSAA aspires to improve the rating through hard efforts further.

According to the Irtiqaa report, Al Ittihad National Private School Falaj Hazzaa showed remarkable growth in improved students’ achievement in most subjects. The school provided excellent protection, care and guidance, which have successfully led to the students’ personal and social development.

Similarly, students have shown a positive attitude towards learning progress and are well aware of the UAE heritage and culture.

Nevertheless, the report highlighted a few areas of concern and made recommendations accordingly. The school must work on offering more effective and regular learning experiences and research-based and problem-solving activities.

Teachers must work on their skills and methods while conducting a class. They are recommended to use data-driven assessment information wisely, provide challenging tasks in the class and deliver high-quality feedback to students.

Finally, Al Ittihad National Private School in Al Ain must improve leadership and governance by switching to an adaptive and modified curriculum.
