Riyadh Academy Global Hittin follows the Cambridge International Curriculum for Early Years (KG1–KG3) and Primary (Grades 1–6). In the Early Years, the program focuses on four development areas—physical, cognitive, language and communication, and social-emotional growth—within a holistic, bilingual framework that prepares pupils for Cambridge Primary. From Grade 1 to Grade 6, Cambridge Primary Curriculum delivers core subjects such as English, Mathematics, and Science, with a broad range of additional subjects including Art & Design, Computing, Digital Literacy, Music, Physical Education, and Wellbeing. Arabic is taught as either a first language or second language, and Saudi students study National Identity subjects (Arabic, Islamic Studies, Social Studies) as part of the bilingual programme. Expatriate students have options such as Arabic as a Modern Foreign Language, Modern Foreign Language, Drama, and Global Perspectives, alongside a wide programme of co-curricular clubs. Instruction is delivered primarily in English, with a values-driven approach that emphasises inquiry, creativity, and global citizenship within the Cambridge framework.

Riyadh Academy Global Hittin supports social and emotional learning through Learning Support Services (LSS), which provide tailored programs, collaborate with classroom teachers, and offer tiered levels of assistance, with English language learning integration to support social inclusion.

The school maintains a small Learning Support team that can assist with minor learning support issues, including dyslexia and dyspraxia, and coordinates with external specialists as needed; there is explicit mention of English language learner (EAL) support for English learners.

The English Language Learning (ELL) provision includes a dedicated ELL teacher who works in collaboration with class teachers, uses regular diagnostic testing with the Cambridge English Scale, and integrates language support into the primary curriculum.

Student Services emphasise the physical and mental wellbeing of students, stating that children should feel safe, respected and valued, and should be able to receive help when required, with wellbeing positioned at the heart of the school experience.

Safeguarding is addressed through the safeguarding-oriented stance of Student Services, focusing on safety and wellbeing on campus.
