End of the year documents required by parents

Dear Parents,

I hope you are well. As the academic year comes to a close there are requests for documents. Could we ask to ensure that these are produced in a timely way that all requests are sent to register@fpa.sch.ae by Friday 24th June. Final mark sheets are not available until the marks are approved by the Ministry of Education in early July.

Best wishes, Principal

PCR To enter the school on Monday 6 June

Dear Parents,

As you are aware school examinations for Grade 3 – 10 start on Monday June 6 and we really need your help to carry these out without disruption from covid cases in school. We now have many different entry dates and therefore testing dates for our students which is proving difficult for staff to manage. May I ask that a test this weekend for entry Monday 6th June for all students except KG Green who require one on Wednesday 8th June and Grade 1 Green require one for Tuesday 7th June. 

Grades 11 & 12 continue to test weekly for entry as do staff.

If your child is vaccinated ensure school has a record of this to the pcr@fpa.sch.ae

Thanking you for your kind assistance

Best wishes, Principal

Entry to school Monday 30th May

Dear Parents,

To enter school on Monday May 30th  students KG1-Grade 10 will require a negative PCR if they are unvaccinated and tests should be no older than 72 hours from the day they were taken. Vaccinated students require a PCR to enter on Monday 6th June with tests no older than 72 hours. However,  if your child has the results of a PCR taken within the last 7 days the next is required 14 days from that date for the vaccinated and 7 days for the unvaccinated. This regime will continue for the rest of this term. This our instruction from the Amiri Diwan.

Very important Grade 11 and 12 students, in order to protect the running of the GCSE and GCE AS level examinations from the UK must take a PCR weekly irrespective of vaccination status.

All staff continue to test weekly.

All covid protocol is in place and students will be in class isolation ‘bubbles.’ Senior students will be monitored distancing and mask wearing. Please ensure that any child who is not well is not sent to school. Again, thank you for your support. Any concerns please contact Ms Hanan in the school office.

May I also inform you that the examination and testing schedules for Primary, Middle School and Seniors are on your child’s seesaw account together with instructions from Section Heads. Please contact school if you require further information on these. The testing/examination period starts on Monday 6th June. The school day starts at the normal time but will finish at 13.30. Should you require your child to remain until 14.00 then supervision will be available and please ensure the Section Heads are informed you require this through Ms Hanan in the school office.

Best wishes,

Principal

Grade 11 Exams

Dear Parents, At this sad time, the school has been given special permission for Grade 11 students to take their IGCSE English Second Language examination on Monday 16th May. They need to arrive 15 minutes before the start of the examination at 11.40 and will leave immediately after completion. These papers are sent from Cambridge and there is no way to reschedule them. The next session would be in November 2022. For that reason, the Board are allowing for this to continue.

If you have any questions kindly call Ms Hanan on the school emergency mobile 050 1725781.

Yours sincerely,
