Our story
01 / A PLACE TO GROWEvery great journey begins with feeling at home.
The school's existing About page describes Darlings' Home as one of Science Bridges International company's schools, working under the supervision of Saudi Arabia's Ministry of Education. We serve children in kindergarten and primary school in Taif's Al Sadad district.
Our approach brings together a British curriculum using the Cambridge syllabus, purposeful teaching and a warm school community. We aim to make room for each learner to develop their strengths, ask questions and contribute in their own way.
The school's vision also honours local identity: children study Arabic, the Holy Quran and Islamic studies alongside English-medium learning and French.
Learning for all, caring for each other, preparing for the future.
— Darlings' Home school ethos
Every learner has a story.Our mission
Curious minds. Kind hearts.
We strive to nurture globally minded learners who value diversity, pursue excellence and act with compassion. A love of learning grows through thoughtful teaching, critical thinking, meaningful collaboration and the confidence to explore new ideas.
Just as important, we want children to feel happy and secure, take responsibility for themselves and others, and play a valued role in their community.
