MAO is a well established school which has been running for over thirty years. At present it has around a thousand students from the Foundation Stage to Year 12. We have introduced assessment monitoring and evaluation procedures modeled on those used in schools in England. MAO school structure based on the English system, schemes of work are now being used in Primary and Secondary levels.

MAO offer Checkpoint/S.A.T.s at Keystage-4, I.G.C.S.E. at Keystage-5 and A.S. In 2011 academic year we had over 180 students entered and 20 entered for the A.S. examinations. (In 2005 only eight students were entered for I.G.C.S.E./G.C.S.E).

These figures will increase as the National Curriculum becomes more firmly embedded. It is also important to point out that the vast majority of students that attend the school are from the local community. Arabic is their mother tongue.

We have qualified I.C.T teachers who are delivering ENC I.C.T Curriculum (Schemes of work). It is a team of three dedicated teachers and two technicians with 1 Head of the Department Mr.Saeed Ahmed.
