Ms Stacey Myers
Head of Primary
Welcome to the Gulf English School’s EYFS Department, a vibrant learning community where every child, staff member and parent is valued and welcomed. As the Head Teacher, I am committed to creating a nurturing atmosphere where children thrive and develop the skills to become active, caring, productive and responsible members of society. We foster a love for learning and encourage lively and inquisitive minds that will last a lifetime.
At Gulf English School, we are dedicated to providing a high-quality education that empowers our students to become lifelong learners and responsible global citizens. We invite you to join our community and be part of the exciting journey of learning and growth at our school.
Ms Ruhi Prasher
Deputy Head for KS1
As the Deputy Head of EYFS and KS1, I am dedicated to ensuring that children receive the best possible start in their educational journey.
In our department, we witness firsthand the remarkable development that occurs during the early years. During early childhood, children's communication and motor skills flourish, enhancing their ability to express themselves and engage in meaningful conversations while gaining confidence in their physical abilities.
They explore their identity, form relationships, and navigate emotions, fostering personal, social, and emotional development. Literacy and numeracy skills emerge as children recognise letters, experiment with writing, and develop a curiosity for numbers, shapes and patterns.
They embark on a journey of discovery, investigating their environment, understanding basic scientific concepts, and gaining appreciation for cultural diversity, history, geography, and our interconnected world. Expressive arts and design enable children to unleash their creativity, imagination, and self-expression through music, art, drama, and imaginative play.
By nurturing children's development holistically, we lay the foundation for their well-being, academic achievements, and lifelong love for learning. It is a privilege to make a positive and lasting impact on their educational journey.
