Vice Principal for Academics & Quality Assurance |
DR. AHMED AL-ZUHAIRI
Belvedere British School
First let me begin by saying how delighted I am to join the school, and be a part of its continuous journey to success. I am keen for all our children to be the best that they can be. I can assure you that our school will continue to provide the best possible education, outcomes, and experiences for your children.
I am a UK graduate with a Doctorate in Chemical Engineering, and soon to complete my second Doctorate in Education from the University of Bristol. My 12 years of UAE experience in Education has been in British Curriculum Schools. I started as a teacher in 2008 and grew into a Head of the Department for Math and Science, whereby I held this position for 5 years. I then had a short stint in QatarFoundation, Doha, where I held a Scientist position. My love for the UAE forced me to return here, whereby I held the position as an Examinations officer for 5 years. During this time, I was responsible for the internal and external Examinations in the School, as well as being responsible for the Academic Quality Assurance. I was responsible for all external Board examinations, which included Pearson Edexcel and Cambridge CIE. In 2017, I was also given the role as an IB coordinator. During this time, I ensured the IB department grew to be one of the most successful in the UAE. My most recent appointment was as a Vice Principal for a British Private School in Abu Dhabi.
I am passionate about providing our pupils with a world-class education, and I will not settle for anything less, because your children deserve the absolute best. Working closely with our amazing staff, I aim to create an environment where your children feel safe and happy, excited, and enthralled! A school they are proud to call their own.
