Headmaster

It is a genuine pleasure to welcome you to Harrow International UAE.
I was fortunate to attend The King’s School, Rochester, one of England’s oldest public schools. There, I experienced first-hand the transformative power of a values-led education, something that has profoundly influenced my career. That formative experience continues to inspire my commitment to ensuring that every pupil in our care is afforded the same richness of opportunity, support, and aspiration.

Our schools blend the heritage and values of one of Britain’s most esteemed public schools with the dynamism, innovation, and diversity that define this remarkable region.
