During the next academic year, I am fortunate to continue my role through school as Assistant Headteacher: Arabic and Islamic. This role offers me the chance to help raise the profile and promote Arabic and Islamic culture and heritage within the school and wider community, alongside leading improvement in teaching and learning in the departments.
Having worked closely with Rehab Khalifa and Feras Al Tahaineh this year who have both built strong foundations in the Arabic and Islamic Departments, I look forward to continuing our journey moving forward. My role is to support, assist and continue to build upon the excellent foundations to achieve our goals. Importantly, as a school built upon a community ethos, I also look forward to meeting and building strong relationships with our Arabic and Islamic Parental Communities, recognising the important role our parents play in reinforcing the pillar of community at Safa.
Since becoming a teacher in 2011, I have had seven years experience as a Middle Leader, leading both History and Humanities Departments in the UK and UAE and have now completed my first year as a Senior Leader. During this time I have overseen the development of teaching staff at various stages of their teaching career, providing them with the necessary coaching, guidance and mentoring to become reflective practitioners in their subjects. I have also had Whole School Responsibility in the UK overseeing Key Stage 3 (Secondary) reporting, leading staff INSET, teacher training and the tracking/analysis of Key Stage 3-5 (Secondary) data and now have Whole School Responsibility overseeing the Arabic and Islamic Departments at SCS.
