The special needs programs are designed for students with mild to moderate Intellectual disabilities who have special educational, cognitive, emotional, and behavioral needs. Considering these needs, the SEN program aims to provide our students with all kinds of skills to build their mentality and personality. We aim to raise an independent human who can overcome all developmental obstacles and be a productive person helping in the community.
The SEN division receives students as young as 5.6 years old to build their skills and personalities until they reach the age of 17, at which point they can join the vocational program VOC until they reach the age of 21.
The VOC program equips students between 17 and 21 with various skills beyond basic academic and life skills to prepare them for assisted/fully independent lives. The ASDAN programs cover various modules: Communication, The Community, Sport and Leisure, Home Management, The Environment, Number Handling, Health and Survival, World of Work, and Science and Technology. The BTEC programs cover the following units: Understanding how to use Office Equipment, How to Handle Mail, Using E-mail, and Producing a CV. Each module/unit has specific challenges that ensure students apply the skills learned in the real world. Between January and March every year, students do a two-week work experience within the school and in companies, Banks, and local businesses to practice what they have learned throughout the year.
The available posts are to teach ASDAN Personal Development Programs PDP (Bronze), and ASDAN Preparing for Adulthood (New Horizon).
Since 1996, Dasman Bilingual School in Sharq has been enriching the lives of its students, their families, and the community by providing high quality, bilingual education in a safe and positive learning environment, which fosters the academic, social, spiritual and moral development of each child.
Our stride towards leadership has not been easy as we gradually grew from 400 students located in just two buildings in 1996 to more than 2800 students spread across seven buildings in what is currently one of the largest private schools in Kuwait. The campus boasts two swimming pools, two auditoriums, football fields, indoor play areas for our younger students, indoor and outdoor basketball courts in addition to music rooms, computer and science labs, a spacious cafeteria and library will shortly follow.
Our diverse student body comprised of children from different countries benefits from a progressive, modern and congenial school setting designed to foster academic achievement. We are committed to internationalism and seek to promote a multicultural community. Additionally, our mission serves to encourage global citizenship with the understanding that learning is challenging, connected and never ending.
This vision and a keen desire to improve continuously has been the driving force towards many, and most, of the academic and non-academic decisions taken. Embarking on a journey aimed at a more holistic approach to education, the schoolâs board of directors and executive management have built a vision crystallizing their beliefs of empowering, engaging, inspiring and motivating the youths of today, for a better future tomorrow.
Licensed teachers can teach in Kuwait's private international schools for the chance to experience life in the Middle East while earning an excellent salary and benefits. Hot and sunny year-round, Kuwait's welcoming residents and beautiful weather make for an incredible experience teaching overseas.
