Only cares of money no matter the educational level plus the families pay more in home to build the good online education coz this school refuses to welcome back the kids, the families afford internet fee, laptops and its maintenance, paper and printers with inks ..etc then the school asks for the completed fees or blocking the marks while already families know them coz the mothers solve the exams online by they own and in the end , the school is happy with the extra income and consists to not welcome back the kids .. only money only business

If I could give this school 0 stars, I would, in a heartbeat. As someone who has attended this school for well over a decade, take it from me, do not send your children there. The more terrible aspects of the school became increasingly ubiquitous during my high school years. My senior year experience was nothing short of absolute atrocity. 1. MANAGEMENT - The management is completely indifferent in regards to any affairs relating to the student (besides their money, of course) or their concerns. Their only focus is on maintaining a "good image" of the school, which frankly, in any universe, does not exit for NWIS. Students are bullied into obedience, and none of their nor their parents' concerns are ever taken seriously. If the school finds it so easy to dismiss a parent's anxiety, imagine how the students are treated on a daily basis. Spoiler alert, it's pretty dang awful. Everything is swept under the rug, blamed on the student, and never dealt with. Azra herself, in my humble opinion, has played a major part in contributing to the general discontentedness in the air surrounding every student. 2. SEXISM & MISOGYNY - These run rampant in the poorly cleaned halls of NWIS. Perhaps NWIS is a time machine, transporting every woman to 1800s, truly a ghastly scientific marvel of sorts. Girls were not allowed to bring their electronic devices, including laptops, up until a couple of years ago (strictly for study purposes may I add) while this was a common occurrence among the boys. They were also extremely lenient regarding the boys' uniforms. If a girl had done this, she'd probably be threatened with suspension and be left in tears. For heaven's sake, browse the god-awful instagram account, you'll find boys in their unlaundered sweatpants. Maybe I am to blame for hoping that the school would've treated me as an equal to my brothers, as Azra once said "the world is an unfair place for women, get used to it". Her words, not mine. 3. RACISM - For an international school that claims that they are on the forefront of celebrating diversity, it is quite racist. You'll see that Arabs and South Asians are quite divided and there's nothing done to remedy this. Students are expected to just put up with this. Just absolutely horrific, I hated dealing with this, and it is such a relief to have gotten out.

I studied here for grade 7 and they have the worst teaching skills, Most of the children speak arabic and foul language is at an all time high. When I joined in grade 7, I remember my friends telling me that they had been using the same science books since last year. Now that they have been promoted to grade 8, they are still using the same books. Meaning that they are using the same science books for 3 years! Their is no control in the class and most of the teachers take no responsibility. During theses 9 months, I got headaches and fevers on a weekly bases. During class, students are beating each other, swearing, talking about inappropriate things and such perverted talks that you can not even begin to imagine. Several boys in my class did everything I mentioned above on a daily bases 3-4 times and they did not even get suspended. I remember talking to my bus fellow who was in grade 8 about grade 8 students who were caught vaping within the school. I also remember the 4-13 pages exams which were taken. Math, which is supposed to be the longest subject, had only 11 pages in the exam! Ohhh and I still haven't started talking about the Cambridge Exams. I was given worksheets, answers written on the board, copy paste with no explanations given. The same goes for the normal classes. I do not recommend this school to anyone who is sincere with his children. Plus the students were so racist! They made fun of other nationalities and usually kept talking about s*x and p*rn. I remember half of the examiners were cheating and it was so obvious. I remember the teacher only changed the place of who was cheating and that didn't stop them from cheating with the other students. Totally not recommended.

Best school ever and for those people saying that students and teachers speaks in Arabic together are lying because I'm a student there and no one speaks in Arabic only in English And for others who says that teachers are racist they are wrong all students from different religion and countries are treated equally no one is more or less than the other I would highly recommend the school
