Eminence Private School is the flagship school of Sadhbhavana Group in the Middle East, after its successful stint in India in the schooling sector (the organization owns and runs one of the Top 10 schools in India). Eminence Private School is located at Sakamkam, a well sought after location for schools in Fujairah and not too far from the City of Fujairah. A simple but distinctive and firm underlying philosophy of the school is to provide progressive education by equipping the students with the holistic skills required for 21st century learners. The school will be an excellent platform for the young minds to become global citizens, through an amalgamation of academic proficiency, curricular and co-curricular activities. This co-ed school shall be affiliated to Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE).
One of the key features of the school that distinguishes it from the rest of the crowd is that it will be an Affordable Quality School. Unlike other schools in the Middle East, where quality means higher fee structure, the school will be providing the highest quality education to the students, but at a fees that is affordable by all.
With state of the art facilities and welcoming environment for the young minds of Fujairah, Eminence will be a place where learning is facilitated in an engaging and entertaining manner. The school will house a spacious library, computer labs, science labs, math lab, language lab, facilities for yoga, art and craft, dance, music, martial arts, football and so on. It will also have a well curated kindergarten that is ideal for the little ones. It will also be a campus giving a lot of importance of environmentally positive agents like a mini organic garden. Over and above all, the school will provide students with the best experience in academics with activity based teaching methodologies.
Every individual has potential. However, most of the time this potential stay hidden or latent and never gets exposure. One of the key objectives of Eminence is to ensure that students’ potential is identified. For this Eminence ensures students are given individual attention. This will enable the identification of their potential so that it can be given the needed stimulus to grow.
A student that begins primary school today will graduate from university at the end of 2030s and their career will last through 2060 or beyond. The jobs in that time and the skills required for those jobs will be quite different. As per the report by McKinsey Global Institute the fastest growing occupations will require higher level cognitive skills in areas such as problem solving, critical thinking, and creativity, and 30 to 40 percent of jobs will require explicit social-emotional skills. Sadhbhavana has anticipated these requirements way before. This is the reason it has special program like the COSS Club, TedEd Talk, inclusion, student teacher talk time and much more as elaborated in the pages before, integrated into its ecosystem to ensure children are moving forward with skills required for the future. Eminence will follow this through as well.
The world is and is fast moving into an era that would be dominated by technology. Artificial Intelligence, augmented reality and robotics are taking over. Hence, it is essential as a futuristic school to embrace technology in its true sense. This does not mean the mere introduction of iPads or laptops. Eminence aims to use technology to its greatest potential by integrating it within a loop in the schooling system that includes instructional delivery, ongoing assessments, appropriate interventions and tracking of outcomes and learning.
As a school it is important to ensure that every child is treated with equity. This is necessary to not only ensure they get equal opportunities, but also ensure they are treated with parity. For this, it is essential to provide proper orientation to the staff and bring about a culture in the school that encourages equity. Eminence will be such a school where equity will be given prime importance and will form a part of its very being.
In a multicultural world, it is important for children to be abreast with global issues, impact of climate change, economic parities and disparities, and so on. A proper exposure to these things as well as facilitating the nurturing of the ability to adapt in a multicultural environment will equip children for life in a global society. Internationalism is all about providing opportunities for this kind of exposures. Eminence aims, through programs like TedEd Talk, signing up for the International School Award, being a part of Kids for Peace, field trips to foreign lands and a lot more, to provide children with ample opportunities to delve into internationalism.
In a place in UAE where the expatriate population is very high, cultural differences are bound to be also high. And, more so when students of today go out to the world to live and work. In such a situation, it is important to make them culturally sensitive. Bringing about cultural sensitivity is possible only by providing children with an education that enables them to understand cultures and be tolerant of differences. Ensuring this through various structured programs will be one of the objectives of Eminence.
Quality at Eminence will be guaranteed through a series of innovative practices and a strong research base. Eminence being a learning organization believes in taking on well researched initiatives and working towards achieving the desired outcomes. A core team works towards researching and developing aspects that scaffolds the organization in continuously enhancing the environment so as to facilitate the achievement of specific or of multiple, related objectives. The learning, unlearning and re-learning process has been the hallmark of the organization’s journey in moving from good to great.
