Protect our planet

At Aspen Heights we believe that our students need to understand the important role they have in protecting our planet.

Sustainability themes are part of our curriculum both inside and outside the classroom, ensuring that students become conscious environmentally friendly citizens and develop positive lifelong values and attitudes towards the environment.

We offer unique environmental initiatives not provided by any other school in Abu Dhabi, including:

  • A hydroponics garden where students will be able to cultivate fruit and vegetables and will be encouraged to develop healthy eating habits.
  • Animals such as fish, chickens, cats, tortoises, a guinea pig and more.

Students will gain an understanding that much of what has been grown can be eaten and enjoyed. Such unique, hands-on learning experiences enhance and embed classroom learning. The learning environment at Aspen Heights celebrates our best use of natural resources and how we might grow and develop a sustainable life to enrich our local communities.

What parents say about us

Aspen Heights is a great school where everyone, from the management to the teachers, genuinely places children’s well-being at the heart of the educational experience. Their approach is radically different from schools that treat students as ‘diploma racehorses’. They understand that a happy and self-confident child will always find success in life.

Joel Guyomard (Aspen Parent)

I love the school culture, and the school discipline. The management of the school is like family. This school is a second home for my children and I always recommend people to enrol their children in this school.

Parents of Meera and Afra

At Aspen Heights British School, the students' happiness and well-being is top priority. Our oldest child is a scholarship holder in the IB Diploma Programme, which offers a challenging, but very rewarding curriculum. A whole new world has opened up for our son and he is enjoying this experience. We are proud to be part of the Aspen Heights family, where our children flourish both academically and personally.

Dewald and Jennie Van Der Linde

My daughter has been in this school for almost 4 years, my son has been here for 3 years, and my youngest son will start soon. We’ve moved home a lot, but my kids never want to leave Aspen! Every teacher my kids have had, has not only brought them on amazingly in terms of academics, but they’ve also provided emotional support and encouragement which is invaluable to me as a mother.
