Academic Curriculum
Curriculum development is a continuous and essential part of Shaheen School Riyadh, reflecting our commitment to adapt to the changing needs of society. We actively promote innovation in teaching and learning, creating a dynamic environment where students engage with diverse subjects in meaningful and relevant ways. Learning goes beyond simply acquiring knowledge; it involves real life application and nurtures reflective, independent, and responsible learners. Our curriculum emphasizes creativity, critical thinking, physical engagement, and social responsibility. We encourage students to take ownership of their growth through purposeful projects, collaborative activities, and service-oriented initiatives. Structured opportunities, such as student-led conferences, provide platforms for reflection, goal-seeing, and self-expression, which help to build confidence and essential life skills. Co-curricular activities, including seminars, symposiums, discussions, dramatics, publications, and public speaking, further enhance intellectual and emotional growth. Together, these academic and experimental components create a learning environment that supports the holistic development of every student, preparing them for active, thoughtful, and impactful roles in a global society.
