We are proud to announce that we have partnered with T4 education to become a part of their Best School to Work Programme.
The programme is an independent, evidence-based mechanism to certify schools that prioritise staff and have built the very best working environment. Our membership will come with anonymous staff, student, and parent surveys to assess the culture of each of our schools, detailed analysis, benchmarking data, and insights to inform school action plans and drive continuous improvement.
Here is what our Divisional Chief Executive Officer for iSP Middle East & Asia, Bharat Mansukhani, had to say about this partnership:
“The UAE continues to be at the forefront of dynamic education change and rapid improvement, always driving measures to continuously improve schools and student outcomes. It is in this spirit of collaboration and innovation that iSP has chosen to participate in the Best School to Work programme. At iSP, we exist to grow the world’s most curious and confident minds, and as part of our Learning First strategy, we prioritise the growth and development of every individual within our schools. By partnering with Best School to Work we are placing an increased focus on creating educational environments where both students and employees thrive, which ultimately underscores our commitment to becoming both the school of choice for students and educators.”
This programme reflects a belief that addressing challenges related to teacher employment starts with creating schools that are not only centres of academic excellence, but also places where staff and students feel supported, valued, and empowered.
Vikas Pota, Founder of T4 Education and Best School to Work, had this to say about iSP involvement in the programme: “I welcome International Schools Partnership- Middle East’s pioneering announcement and commend them for their vision and leadership in making this commitment to the wellbeing of staff across their schools. The world is currently facing a crisis in teacher wellbeing, recruitment, and retention. Only by solving it will schools be able to attract and keep the very best teachers. And only by building the very best teaching environments can we build the very best learning environments.”
He added: “Schools chains like International Schools Partnership that recognise this not only stand out above their peers, they hold the future of education in their hands.”
