The British Academy School Marrakech places pupil welfare and wellbeing at the center of its approach. Pastoral care is central, with staff providing a familiar point of contact to listen, challenge, and engage pupils in learning inside and beyond the school day. The House System recognises each pupil as an individual and supports their unique needs, potential, limitations and capabilities.
The school has an Inclusion Policy - SEND to support pupils with special educational needs.
Immersion in the English Language is usually sufficient for children to quickly develop proficient English language skills. Extra support may be needed for children entering primary school with little English. In Year 1 to Year 6 there is an assistant teacher in each class with additional English language support provided where necessary.
The welfare and wellbeing of pupils is the priority. Pastoral care is central to BASM, providing a familiar adult to listen, challenge, and engage learners. The House System recognises and supports pupils as individuals, contributing to their emotional and social development.
The school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff to share this commitment. All applicants should read the school's Safeguarding Statement and are required to declare any concerns. Applicants must be willing to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers and the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) or equivalent.

The British Academy School Marrakech (BASM) is a coeducational, non-denominational British Overseas School in Morocco, founded in 2019 as a philanthropic, not-for-profit enterprise. It provides English-language education and follows the English National Curriculum from the Early Years through to Year 13. The Early Years Foundation Stage (Nursery and Reception) is mapped to Key Stages 1–4, and a Sixth Form will be introduced in September 2024 for Years 12–13. Examinations culminate in Edexcel iGCSE and international A levels. The school serves ages 3 to 18 and uses the EYFS and the National Curriculum for England and Wales as the teaching framework. BASM is fully accredited as a British Overseas School and was the first British school in Morocco recognised by the UK Government. The proprietor is Professor Tariq Obaid. The campus offers science support and a range of extracurriculars, notably Chess Club and Football, underpinned by a strong pastoral care system and a House System to support pupil welfare and individual development.
