The most recent and top-notch school news updates

As the leading online school, Al Rushd is always at the forefront of innovation. Our students are the first to learn about exciting new tech features, events, competitions, celebrations, and much more.

Bringing education to life through technology

Curious about how students receive practical education at a fully online school? At Al Rushd, we leverage the power of technology to provide students with an immersive learning experience. Our educators integrate innovative educational technologies across a broad range of subjects to enable students to learn in a more interactive way, delve deeper into topics, and gain a comprehensive understanding of each subject. Moreover, this approach makes learning even more enjoyable!

Leveraging technology to promote inclusive learning

Virtual activities can assist students with additional needs by enabling them to learn in a more interactive manner, address knowledge gaps, and enhance their confidence within the classroom.

Extended reality learning

By using moderated virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) tools, our students are able to explore real-world environments that would be inaccessible in a conventional classroom setting.

Virtual science labs

From cultivating bacteria and sequencing genes in biology to testing pH levels and extracting compounds in chemistry, our virtual science labs cover everything!

Teachers' guidance, encouragement, and assistance

Just because your teachers aren’t physically present in the room, doesn’t mean they’re unavailable to assist you. In fact, you can reach out to them for support at any time through our online learning platform.

Regular lesson check-ins

Our focused virtual classrooms are thoughtfully designed with cues and features that help teachers identify any student in need of support to stay on course and connect with them. With every young person receiving the attention they deserve, the risk of falling behind is eliminated.

Personal feedback on tasks

Teachers assess all homework tasks online, allowing pupils to effortlessly view their feedback whenever they wish. This tailored support highlights their achievements, nurtures their strengths, and guides them clearly on areas for improvement.

Extra support when needed

Students seeking additional assistance will discover numerous avenues for academic support at Al Rushd. In addition to seeking further guidance from teachers, your child can participate in subject-specific weekly drop-in clubs, core subject support courses for students with special educational needs, and more.
