Welcome to Al Raja School’s official website. The aim of the website is to provide information about our wonderful school and the array of activities available to the students at Al Raja School. 

This year we celebrate 125 years of the rich history we have in Bahrain. Many parents send their children to Al Raja because of the legacy, heritage and the principles on which Amy Zwemer built the school. They fondly remember the great relationships they had with their own peers and teachers when they were students at Al Raja School.  Many former students often come back to serve on the Board of Directors.

One of the attributes of Al Raja School that makes it so unique is its reputation for rigorous academics, which has lasted over the past 100 years.  We are excited about what our students learn, how they learn it, and where it takes them after Al Raja School.  We are a school that is grounded in the Arabic language giving students a firm foundation in the language of their home as well as being thoroughly prepared for attending universities locally and abroad.

Our student accomplishments are only possible with a staff that is dedicated to learning and growing in their profession. Their aim is to equip our students to be global citizens who embrace the similarities and differences of our diverse culture and to be socially sensitive, tolerant and accepting adults who are prepared to take their place and make a difference in the world of business, commerce, science, law, medicine, conservation and education.

At Al Raja School, we strive, every day, to ensure that every child feels valued, safe and enthused within a welcoming, secure and stimulating environment. Our dedicated staff work tirelessly to educate students to their full potential within a broad and balanced curriculum and are deeply committed to providing the highest standard of teaching and learning experiences both in and outside of school for the holistic development of all students.

We invite you to participate in all our school programs and activities and look forward to seeing you around the school, working for the benefit of the students. Al Raja School is an ever-evolving place for children, their families, teachers and support staff as everyone is continually learning and growing together.

At Al Raja School, your child comes first and the success of all our students really matters. Throughout the school year, the teachers, Supervisors, Social Counsellors, Vice Principals and I are available to meet with you at mutually convenient times to discuss the academic progress and welfare of your child.

I wish your child every happiness and success in the years ahead in Al Raja School and I look forward to working with you, our parents, to ensure that your child’s time with us is a fulfilling and rewarding experience.
