Welcome from the Principal

I am incredibly proud to have the privilege and responsibility of being the founding Principal of PACE Modern British School. I bring with me 23 years leadership and teaching experience at outstanding schools both in the UK and the Middle East. Born and bred in London, I would describe myself as a hardworking, positive, contingent leader. At PACE Modern British School, we have an opportunity to shape the leaders of tomorrow and I am excited to work with these flourishing young people here at our school.

Our vision places children; their interests and learning needs, at the centre of everything we do. Passionate teachers work tirelessly to facilitate fun, engaging, relevant, memorable and highly effective learning experiences.

We aim to foster a love for learning in students, enabling them to apply their knowledge and skills effectively, inculcating traditional values and modern techniques to contribute innovatively for global impact. Engaging with you, our school community, is key to the success of our work.

We work continuously to create a safe, respectful and collaborative environment, conducive to promoting creativity, and develop compassionate, tolerant global citizens, through dedicated leadership, committed staff and state of the art facilities.

We understand that outstanding learning and an excellent, rounded education are not only about you acquiring the best possible skills and academic qualifications, but also about developing your personal qualities, enjoying school and following your interests and passions in a range of other activities, such as athletics, the arts, outdoor education, community service and much more.

We are an ambitious, professional staff, who implement the values that we feel are important in education, whilst simultaneously embracing the UAE National Agenda Vision 2021, which has enabled us to reach for the highest standards – providing a truly world-class education.

“Education is a fundamental element for the development of a nation and the best investment in its youth.”

UAE Vision 2021

A school cannot work in isolation if our goal is student success. It takes the school staff, families, and students working together. This is why our doors are open to our families and community. If I can ever be of assistance, please feel free to call, email or stop in for a visit.

On behalf of PACE MBS, we look forward to welcoming you to our school, for you to see first hand the value in joining us here at PACE MBS.
