Star International School Altwar, an accredited BSO Good School, stands out among the many large schools of Dubai by its community feel and by the warm smiles on the faces of students/Starlights. The Principal, Ma am Dolly, takes pride in the achievements of all
her children. For the teachers in Star Altwar, every child is an individual with their own unique needs. While Ma’am Dolly moves the school towards academic excellence, she also believes that children need to be critical thinkers and problem solvers and confident of their own abilities. Holistic development is very essential, so children are empowered to enhance Leadership qualities from a young age. Ms. Jo Eccles, our Foundation Head, sets high standards from FS2. Our Primary Head, Ms. Claire Gilmore, takes this a step further by having young Leaders as Mentors for the little ones. Yoga, Mindfulness and the promotion of healthy lifestyles are what they model. Here is a school that celebrates the diversity of its students through mutual respect and by observing all festivals that are important to them
