Let the school know you're thinking of applying — they can share their prerequisites and help you through the process.
It's best to ask — circumstances can change at any time.
1. Age eligibility and grade placement. The school defines entry ranges as follows: KG1 is for children 3.2 to 4.2 years old; KG2 is 4.2 to 5.2 years old; Grade 1 is 5.2 to 6.5 years old. Use these age bands to determine the appropriate grade for your child, as they set the official entry limits for each level. If your child's age falls outside these ranges, confirm with the school to understand possible options.
2. Required documents you must prepare. The admissions process requires several documents to accompany the application: four passport‑size photographs of the child; copies of the child's passport and the father's passport; the child's birth certificate; vaccination report; the child's health reports; and a previous school leaving certificate if available. Have these documents ready to streamline the application.
3. Submit your admission details and contact the school. For admission, you should submit the details requested by the school. Reach the school by phone at +968 9588 2848 or +968 23295214, or contact the mobile line +968 95882848 to discuss the next steps or to arrange a submission. Providing the requested details promptly helps move the process forward.
4. Uniforms and uniform procurement. For uniforms, contact the Bamkhalef location opposite the police station in Salalah at the telephone number 23295053. The KG uniforms and the Grade 1–12 uniforms are specified in the admissions materials, and you can obtain further details or arrange fittings through the contact channels listed.
5. School timings and daily schedule. The school operates Sunday to Thursday. KG‑1 and KG‑2 run from 7:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., while Grade 1 to Grade 12 run from 7:00 a.m. to 1:45 p.m. Plan to arrive before 7:00 a.m. on school days and to stay for the stated dismissal times.
6. Sign the student code and contract. The rules and regulations for students are part of the admission process and must be read and signed by both parents and students at the time of admission; it constitutes a contract between student, parents, and the school. This helps establish expectations for behavior, attendance, uniform, and conduct from the outset.
