About Reem British Academy
Reem British Academy is a premium co-educational school situated in the heart of Al Reem Island, Abu Dhabi, offering a comprehensive British curriculum from the Early Years Foundation Stage through to A-Level. Founded to serve the island's growing international community, the academy has quickly established itself as one of the most respected British-pathway schools in the emirate, earning an Outstanding rating from ADEK in its most recent inspection cycle.
The school follows the English National Curriculum, adapted to the Abu Dhabi context with strong Arabic language and Islamic Studies programmes in compliance with ADEK requirements. In the senior years, students prepare for Cambridge IGCSE examinations at Year 10 and 11, followed by A-Level study across a broad range of subjects. The academy's A-Level results have seen consistent year-on-year improvement, with a significant proportion of graduates securing places at Russell Group universities in the UK and leading institutions in the US, Canada, and Australia.
Pastoral care is a central pillar of the Reem British Academy philosophy. Each student is assigned to a form tutor who monitors academic progress, social development, and wellbeing throughout their school career. A dedicated team of counsellors is available to support students through the pressures of examinations, university applications, and adolescent life in a transient expatriate environment. The school also runs an extensive programme of extracurricular activities, including competitive sports leagues, Model United Nations, STEM clubs, drama productions, and community service initiatives.
Facilities at Reem British Academy are purpose-built and reflect the school's commitment to a holistic education. The campus includes an Olympic-size swimming pool, a full-size synthetic turf football pitch, six science laboratories, a design and technology workshop, and a dedicated performing arts theatre. A 1:1 iPad programme from Year 4 onwards supports a blended learning approach that prepares students for a technology-driven world. The school's location on Al Reem Island offers convenient access for families residing across Abu Dhabi's island communities and the city centre.
