Academics

Dar Jana International Schools teaches American Curriculum for students aged 3 to 18.

Curriculum

Dar Jana International Schools offers a K-12 curriculum anchored in the IB Primary Years Programme (PYP) for ages 3–12, and is a Candidate School for IB PYP. The school organizes its programs as Preschool (ages 3+) through High School (Grades 10–12), with the PYP framework applying through the early years and elementary. The High School program adopts a US-style American Diploma structure, featuring comprehensive SAT/ACT and AP preparation, AP Core Courses, and the AP Capstone Diploma Program, along with college and career counseling. Dar Jana is Cognia-accredited and operates as an accredited American Diploma school. The IB PYP content centers on six transdisciplinary themes and the IB Learner Profile to guide inquiry-based learning from ages 3–12.

Wellbeing

Social and Emotional Learning (SEL)

Dar Jana International Schools provide a School Counseling Department with certified/licensed school counselors who are available to all students. The counselors act as student advocates, support students in applying academic achievement strategies, help them manage emotions and interpersonal skills, provide short‑term counseling, and collaborate with families, teachers, administrators, and the community for student success. The program's mission is to address the academic and social‑emotional wellbeing of students, with students thriving in welcoming, respectful, inclusive learning environments. The College Guidance Counseling team coordinates ongoing activities designed to help students individually or in groups to set personal goals and develop future plans, and to support postsecondary options. The school emphasizes social‑emotional development as a core element of its learning environment.

Special Educational Needs (SEN)

Inclusion and language equity are described as core aims, with explicit SEN-related language supports. The policies detail Arabic Language Support, including an Arabic as an Additional Language (AAL) program for non‑native speakers, and Remedial Arabic groups for native speakers more than two levels below proficiency. The approach uses tiered interventions and targeted literacy support to meet diverse learner needs and to ensure inclusive language learning across the curriculum. DJIS does not identify itself as a dedicated specialist SEN institution; rather, it provides language and inclusion supports as part of its inclusion framework.

English as an Additional Language (EAL)

Arabic Language Support is explicitly outlined, including an Arabic as an Additional Language (AAL) program for non‑native speakers and remedial Arabic groups for students below proficiency. The policy describes a Whole‑School Language Culture where all teachers are language teachers and language learning is embedded across subjects, with ongoing literacy supports for language learners. Remedial Arabic groups target native speakers who are multiple levels below proficiency, and AAL aims to support non‑native speakers in listening, speaking, reading, and writing. These elements show that EAL support is provided through structured language programs rather than a separate standalone department.

Mental Wellbeing

Mental wellbeing is explicitly integrated into the school's counseling framework. All students have access to a certified/licensed school counselor who serves as a student advocate, supports academic achievement strategies, helps students manage emotions, and collaborates with families and staff for student success. The counseling department coordinates ongoing activities to assist students individually or in groups and to set personal goals and future plans, including postsecondary planning. The guidance program is described as comprehensive and aimed at creating supportive, inclusive environments that promote wellbeing.

Safeguarding

Safeguarding is reflected in the Code of Ethics, which emphasizes confidentiality, professional competence, integrity, transparency, and non‑discrimination, with a stated focus on the social‑emotional development of all students. The school also states it maintains stringent safety and wellness protocols to protect students and staff. Together, these elements indicate a formal emphasis on safeguarding, ethics, and safe learning environments.
