Taaleem Charter Schools 

As a leading education provider in the Middle East, Taaleem is supporting the UAE Vision and National Agenda 2021, and the Emirate of Abu Dhabi in their commitment to establishing a “First Rate Education System” for all students.

The Charter Schools is a third education model in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi and it is the outcome of a unique partnership between the government and the private sectors. As part of this new initiative we were awarded 4 schools in 2019 to manage and operate, with the aim of raising the quality of education; playing a significant role in shaping the present and future lives of Emirati youth. This recently increased to 6 schools in August 2021, and again to 9 schools in August 2022.

 

Taaleem currently has three established Elementary Charter Schools;

  • Al Salam School (opened 2019)
  • Al Watan School (opened 2019)
  • Al Riyadh School (opened 2021)

Our Elementary Schools combined, welcome over 7,000 students through their doors every day! 500 dedicated, qualified Teachers engage our young learners in modern, purpose-built, spacious campuses in the suburbs of Abu Dhabi. 

The Taaleem Charter Schools offer Teachers an inclusive, collaborative working environment where staff wellbeing and professional development are at the forefront.

We are seeking outstanding, dedicated, and resilient teachers who are committed to the long term goals of this project. We would like to recruit individuals who believe they can make a difference to their students, who understand that change is a process, and who want to take an active role in sharing their expertise as the team moves towards achieving its shared goals.

The projected growth of the Taaleem Branch Charter School Project will offer a broad range of opportunities in the coming years, presenting Charter School employees with fantastic options for career progression.

 

Taaleem

Taaleem, formerly known as Beacon Education, is a school management company set up in 2003 to develop and run high-quality education projects.​ ​ The founding partners identified two distinct gaps in the market: the need for more top-quality schools to cater to the growing population and the desire of the many investors to plough their funds into ventures that will help to secure the long-term success of the region. Taaleem was founded to fill these gaps.​

Our Focus is first and foremost on education and students. The comprehensive and holistic approach we employ means that we place as much emphasis on the emotional, social, moral, and physical development of our students as on the academic.​

Our Purpose is to inspire young minds and help our students to identify and develop their passions and talents. To achieve this, Taaleem will provide children with the skills and knowledge to compete on a level playing field with students from the world’s top schools.​ ​

Our Vision is to be the most respected provider of early childhood, primary and secondary education in the Gulf.​ ​

Our Mission is to inspire our students and staff to explore, identify and develop their passions and talents​.
