A School Like No Other
Situated in the vibrant Al Warqaa area of Dubai, the School of Research Science has built a remarkable legacy by combining the rigour of the National Curriculum for England with an outstanding Arabic and Islamic curriculum. This unique blend reflects our international outlook and our deep respect for culture, heritage, and values.
We are a diverse, inclusive community of over 3,000 students aged 3 to 18, proudly serving families from across the globe alongside a high proportion of Emirati nationals. Our school is alive with opportunity, creativity, and a genuine sense of belonging — for students and staff alike.
A Message from Our Headteachers
Dr Nasim Butt
The Principal
Mr John Trundinger
Head of Primary
Ms Carla Kenny
Head of Secondary
Dear Prospective Colleague,
The School of Research Science is, at its heart, a family school. For over 25 years, it has nurtured generations of families, with siblings, cousins, and even children of alumni walking proudly through our doors. During this time, the school has cultivated a unique and highly respected blend of the British Curriculum, known for its rigorous academic standards, alongside an outstanding Arabic and Islamic curriculum.
Between the three of us, we have each been connected to the school for between 15 and 25 years. We have witnessed its remarkable journey — from its early foundations to the thriving, vibrant community it is today. We have seen classrooms expand, facilities flourish, and, most importantly, generations of students grow into confident, capable young adults.
Our school is alive with opportunity beyond the classroom. Staff are warmly encouraged to participate in our celebrated Culture Days and traditional Souks, alongside dynamic initiatives such as Street Maths, Science Exhibitions, Reading Trains, and the Model United Nations.
"We believe schools flourish when their people flourish. We are passionate about welcoming educators who share our commitment to excellence, inclusivity, and community."
With warmest regards,
Dr Nasim Butt · Mr John Trundinger · Ms Carla Kenny
