Spotlight | Capital School Bahrain<br />
Her views are reflected by many<br />
of the other parents, some of who<br />
have reached Capital School’s<br />
welcoming portals after trying<br />
many other schools.<br />
Her words are echoed by<br />
Oxana Kadatskya, “Every day<br />
when I pick up my son, I see the<br />
big smile. He wants to stay here<br />
even after school. To have a proper<br />
foundation, that is the core and I<br />
am so satisfied that we are getting<br />
that.”<br />
“I saw the improvement in my<br />
sons’ performance after just one<br />
semester here. Both of them were<br />
able to read fluently in both Arabic<br />
and English. I couldn’t believe it,”<br />
says Shahnaz Abbas, mother of Ali<br />
and Mohammed Darwish.<br />
“I have been here from<br />
the day the school<br />
opened. The parents are<br />
so supportive and the<br />
kids are so happy here.<br />
Bahrain needs more<br />
schools like ours, I just<br />
love it here.”<br />

Currently situated in Zinj, away<br />
from the roadside in a secure site<br />
strictly monitored 24/7, Capital<br />
School Bahrain is within the area<br />
of the Al Ahli Sports Complex<br />
providing excellent sports and<br />
swimming facilities that would be<br />
the envy of any school. Working<br />
in close collaboration with sister<br />
institution - Capital School, Dubai,<br />
the two schools ensure the very<br />
best of shared expertise and<br />
resources whilst maintaining<br />
collective standards of progress in<br />
all subjects offered.<br />
With the new campus in Saar,<br />
"This is more than just<br />
a day job. We put our<br />
hearts into it and we<br />
carry it everywhere<br />
with us. The children<br />
love it here because the<br />
program offered is so<br />
rich."<br />

Capital School Bahrain will have<br />
the capacity to welcome more<br />
students in the coming school<br />
years, following strictly the rules<br />
and regulations of the government.<br />
"We are truly excited about<br />
this opportunity to inaugurate<br />
this beautiful new site, which<br />
will create more capacity to<br />
serve our students and provide<br />
them with excellent facilities,"<br />
said Adel Al Safar, Chairman of<br />
the Al Safar Group under whose<br />
umbrella the Capital School<br />
stands. "Building this new campus<br />
fulfills the vision of what we have<br />
wanted for our children and the<br />
community for many years. It has<br />
been the continued endeavor of<br />
Capital School to provide the best<br />
amenities for our students in order<br />
to support the learning experience<br />
and make these important<br />
formative years as valuable as<br />
we can. We are grateful to the<br />
government and to all authorities<br />
who have supported us in our<br />
vision."<br />
Naser Shahrour, CEO of Al<br />
Safar Group added, “The formative<br />
years in school are of great<br />
importance for a child and we are<br />
aware of the confidence parents<br />
place in the school to care for<br />
the children and to ensure that<br />
their learning experience and<br />
overall development is of the best.<br />
We aim to reinforce<br />
family values and<br />
norms at all times<br />
which in turn creates an<br />
atmosphere of warmth<br />
and care, because we<br />
believe that a happy<br />
child is one who learns<br />
more effectively,<br />
underpinned by Our<br />
school Motto, “Your best<br />
is always good enough.”<br />
Achieving the highest of academic<br />
standards as well as developing a<br />
co-operative, well-rounded pupil<br />
forms the bases of our school’s<br />
mission statement. We have<br />
worked to create an atmosphere<br />
of warmth and care because we<br />
believe that a happy child learns<br />
well. This new campus is an<br />
important milestone in our efforts<br />
to continually live up to that<br />
promise.”<br />
