Primary KS2 Head of Year

Star International School Mirdif

We are a lively, all-through British international school in Dubai - a place where children are known, families are valued, and teachers are empowered to make a meaningful difference. As part of the International Schools Partnership (ISP), we combine global expertise with deep local roots.

We are proudly inclusive, built on trust and personal bests - where students grow in confidence and character, not just grades.

We believe in awe and wonder, in high expectations with high care, and in doing what works, not just what s always been done.

Our staff culture is grounded in the Star, Mirdif Way:

• Commit to our STAR culture and values
• Hold one another accountable with kindness
• Go Beyond for our students and each other

If that sounds like your kind of school, keep reading.

What we believe

• Every student can achieve their personal best through care, challenge, and high expectations.
• Great teaching changes lives - and every educator can keep getting better.
• Learning should spark curiosity, confidence, and character.
• Schools thrive when kindness and ambition grow side by side.
