Ibn Rushd National Academy

In 2012, Ibn Rushd National Academy became the first school globally authorized to offer the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme (IB PYP) for kindergarten and primary grades (K–5), with Arabic as the main language of instruction and English as a first language. In Middle School (grades 6–10), the IB Middle Years Programme is taught with English as the main language of instruction, alongside Arabic and Islamic studies; Arabic and English are offered as Group 1 Language and Literature. In the Diploma College (grades 11–12), scholars pursue the IB Diploma programme, and the school does not offer the IB Certificate option. Ibn Rushd has been an IB World School since May 18, 2012, with Diploma Programme authorization granted on September 7, 2018, and it reports a cumulative cohort score of 38.4.

Ibn Rushd National Academy presents itself as a unique learning community focused on discovery, creation, reflection, and growth. The approach emphasizes experiential learning, a growth mindset, character-building, and lifelong skills. Dual-language acquisition and research-informed practices shape learning from the early years, with Arabic as the mother tongue and English featured across the IB continuum. Industry links provide real-world connections to enrich scholars' experiences, and student voices are highlighted through accounts of IBDP journeys.

Public information about a dedicated Parent Teacher Association (PTA) is not published in Ibn Rushd National Academy's publicly accessible materials. Family engagement channels appear to be centered on campus visits and direct communications, as shown by the availability of a campus tour and the admissions contact. The school also references a community development centre that provides enriching opportunities for its community members to contribute and engage with society, which may involve families beyond formal PTA structures. For any specific PTA details, please contact the school directly via the provided contact channels.
