We combine a unique blend of academic challenge, enrichment opportunities and pastoral support to target excellence and create a values-based community of teachers, children and parents which we call “The Hartland Way”. The hallmarks of The Hartland Way include:
Working alongside parents, we wish to promote a culture and environment underpinned by traditional values. These are the values of compassion, empathy, kindness and honesty but to name a few. We take pride in reinforcing these traditional values in our day-to-day work with children as ultimately, our greatest aspiration, is to help create confident and successful adults who are fundamentally good people.
With the support of our families, our children and our staff, we believe that we can contribute to a global target for happiness and kindness that, clichés aside, do indeed make the world a better place for all.
We are committed to providing a challenging and excellent education through a unique, ambitious curriculum based on the National Curriculum for England, enriched with global best practices. Through our homegrown “Hartland Diploma”, we provide an opportunity for our sixth form students to develop intellectual, moral, civic and performance virtues. We relentlessly focus on high-quality teaching, adaptive learning, and personalisation. As a High Performance Learning (HPL) school, Hartland fosters advanced cognitive skills, values, and attitudes, encouraging inquiry, collaboration, and resilience. We ensure accountability through strong governance, compliance with global standards, and accreditations such as BSO, COBIS, and BSME. By exceeding KHDA’s DSIB framework expectations and maintaining a rigorous internal quality assurance process, we deliver a safe, inclusive, and world-class educational environment.
We use data analysis and strategic evaluation to drive continuous improvement, ensuring all students make sustained progress. Our high-quality recruitment practices, aligned with ITFCP standards, attract skilled staff who foster stability and success. We prioritise staff development through initiatives like the "Hartland 360" platform, empowering teachers to lead learning through collaboration, research, and quality assurance. Our leadership is guided by a moral compass, promoting growth, feedback, and student leadership across all levels. We strengthen our community through partnerships with parents and organisations like BISSC, NACE COBIS, BSME, and the University of Birmingham Dubai, ensuring relevance, collaboration, and excellence in education.
We are dedicated to fostering a culture of care and support, rooted in values such as integrity, compassion, kindness, respect, and courage. We empower students to excel academically, creatively, and physically, nurturing their potential to achieve their dreams. Inclusivity and safeguarding are at the heart of everything we do, ensuring every child feels valued, protected, and supported. We celebrate cultural diversity and prioritise wellbeing through resilience-building and our "Heart to Hart" approach. At Hartland, we cultivate a supportive environment where students, staff, and parents thrive, preparing for a successful and purposeful future.
