Bloom World Academy’s Al Barsha campus opens in August

Dubai, March 10, 2022: Bloom Education will launch its own brand of school in Dubai this August. Nearly a decade after operating other education brands in the UAE, the school provider will launch its own IB school.

Bloom World Academy is a creative, family-first IB curriculum school for students aged 3 to 18. The school will offer a later start time of 9am for students to optimise productivity throughout the school day. 

Families will be able to design their own bespoke school timings around the official school day of 9am to 4pm. The later start time of 9am will be supported by a combination of optional wraparound care from 7am to 9am and from 5pm to 7pm, along with a selection of co-curricular activities including sports, arts and homework club 

Nilay Ozral, CEO of Bloom Education says, “Bloom World Academy is a school that harnesses a progressive way of thinking and offers something truly different and dynamic that really does put children’s wellness and development at the forefront of all that it does. We are so happy to finally be able to offer a school to parents who are looking for the ability to personalise their child’s academic journey in a premium high-quality education setting.”

The school will offer a customised learning experience for each student. The student-centric curriculum has been built on the concept of ‘stage not age’ to ensure that children progress and develop their learning based on their aptitude, interests and abilities. The school aims to empower students to take ownership of their learning with a Learning Achievement Passport (LAP), which will allow students to work towards their own personal curriculum, timetable and targets, and will be reviewed collectively between teachers, parents and students every month.

The school is divided into five pastoral phases from Primo, the Early Years Centre, through to Nexus, the Pre-University Centre.  

Bloom World Academy will open the doors for Pre-KG to Grade 9 students at its state-of-the-art campus in Al Barsha in August 2022.
