Challengers International School

The school operates on a philosophy of preparing students for life rather than just examinations, aiming to balance global academic excellence with Islamic values and Arab identity. It utilizes a '15-pillar' educational system across five axes, focusing on building internal self-regulation, critical thinking, and practical life skills. The school emphasizes that values and future-readiness are not mutually exclusive, striving to build a complete human being.

The school exclusively follows the British Cambridge International curriculum from KG1 through Grade 9. The academic programme is structured into four stages: Kindergarten, Lower Primary (Grades 1-5), Middle School (Grades 6-8), and Grade 9, which serves as preparation for IGCSE. Core subjects include English, Mathematics, Science, ICT, Arabic, and Islamic studies, complemented by the exclusive 'Bunyan' values programme and a technical track covering AI, robotics, and entrepreneurship.

By the end of the kindergarten stage, students are expected to read short stories, perform mental math, and memorize parts of the Quran. Graduates of the primary and middle stages are prepared for IGCSE examinations, demonstrate fluency in English, possess advanced programming skills in Python, and have experience in managing commercial projects. The school aims for students to be confident, values-driven, and technically proficient leaders.

The school focuses on personalized development, with small class sizes of 20 students allowing teachers to create individual follow-up plans for each child. The educational approach emphasizes internal self-regulation and character building, supported by the 'Bunyan' programme, which aims to foster a strong conscience and ethical behavior in students.

The school maintains a strict limit of 20 students per class to ensure individual attention. Admissions require a mandatory exploratory interview involving the parents, the student, and the school team to ensure a shared vision for the child's education. Registration is currently open for the 2026/2027 academic year, with priority given based on the order of application.

The school operates from Sunday to Thursday, with daily working hours from 7:30 AM to 3:30 PM. The academic year follows a structured daily schedule that integrates core subjects, the 'Bunyan' values programme, and technical skills.

The campus is located in the Al-Nakheel suburb on Airport Road, Amman. It features specialized learning environments, including an innovation lab for robotics and AI, and classrooms designed to support small group sizes. The school also provides a modern, GPS-tracked transportation service covering five designated areas in Amman.

Co-curricular activities are integrated into the daily school life to build practical skills and character. These include a dedicated entrepreneurship programme starting from Grade 4, where students manage small businesses, and various technical activities such as robotics, AI, and mental math. The school also emphasizes community-based learning and leadership development through projects and presentations.
