Cheltenham Muscat

Cheltenham Muscat opened in September 2021 and is the first UK premium school for boys and girls aged 3 to 18 in Oman. Our partnership with Cheltenham College UK , who have been educating pupils both from the UK and abroad for one hundred and eighty years is genuine.

Cheltenham Muscat offers:

· A first-class British style international education in the international context of Oman from EYFS through to IGCSE, A Level and General Education Diploma (GED) examinations.

· Academic excellence for all

· Uniquely for Oman, specialist teaching for all pupils from Grade 5 with some specialist – led lessons going all the way down to the early years

· Outstanding pastoral care and opportunities for personal development; and

· A broad range of co-curricular activities as part of a fulfilling extended school day.

The partnership with Cheltenham College UK is a great source of strength. Significant collaboration in areas such as vision and ethos, curriculum planning, professional development, and co-curriculum opportunities, ensure that we maintain the highest international standards. Through the strength of our partnership, both pupils and staff in Oman benefit from the expertise and reputation Cheltenham College has built in the UK over the past two centuries.

We combine an academic focus with a broad extra curriculum, offering all students an extended and fulfilling school day. Underpinning our curriculum is the importance we attach to pastoral care and the wellbeing of all pupils. We understand that children fulfil their potential when they feel happy, supported and at ease in their surroundings. All members of staff, therefore, work hard to build a strong sense of community and promote supportive relationships, ensuring that children know they always have a peer or adult to whom they can talk.
