I.The Welcome

It is my honour and privilege, as Principal of the first campus of Central School International, to welcome you to our school. As an educator with over 25 years of experience in leading primary and secondary schools offering international curricula, I strongly believe that every child has the potential to learn and a right to enjoy learning.

At CSI, every child's everyday matters.
A founding conviction / F. Shahid
II.The Belief
What we are building, in plain words

A safe, supportive, and happy school environment.

With a safe, supportive, and happy school environment at CSI, my team and I are creating the very conditions for meaningful learning for each child, each day.

Everyday careThe school day starts with your child being greeted every morning at the school gate by me and my team.
The Grounds

Learning within and beyond classrooms.

Students spend their extended school day under our care and supervision, with time for interaction, learning, sports, clubs, and play.

III.The Conditions

Four commitments we make to every child.

Learning spaces and school days are curated to encourage students to explore, experiment, express, examine, evaluate, and enjoy learning.

I.

A safe school environment

A safe, supportive, and happy environment gives children the confidence to take part, ask questions, and enjoy learning.

II.

Play, inquiry, and technology

We use play, inquiry, and technology to tap into children's curiosity, talent, and ability to shape academic learning.

III.

The everyday matters

From the school gate to classrooms, cafeteria time, sports, and clubs, every part of the school day is cared for.

IV.

A community around every child

Parents, school teams, and the larger community all have an active role in the learning journey of our students.

African Proverb
It takes a village to raise a child.

At CSI, we believe in building a school community where the school, parents, and the larger community take an active and responsible role in contributing towards the education of our students.

IV. The Closing

A philosophy I carry, and share with you.

یقینِ محکم، عملِ پیہم، محبت فاتحِ عالم

A line we carry into the work of school every day.

Through play, inquiry, and technology, we tap into children's natural curiosity, talent, and ability to shape academic learning.

I invite the parent community to join me and the team at CSI in creating and celebrating the learning journey of our students.

With warm regards,

Signed, Fakhra Shahid
