Best School for Sport – The Finalists 2023 – 2024
The following are our top-5 schools and Finalists for the 2023-2024 SchoolsCompared.com Best School for Sport Award for their across-the-board commitment to, and passion for, Sport – and delivering outstanding sporting outcomes for children.
All the schools listed, in different ways, provide outstanding breadth of sporting options, at different levels, for all students to ensure that every child can meet his or her individual ambitions, potential, and ability. All the schools here ensure that no distinction is made between the exceptional value placed on sport for both boys and girls.
Each of them endeavours to provide added value to each child’s journey to ensure that every student leaves school meeting or exceeding baseline sporting ability. Each of them ensures that all children, even those less comfortable with Sport, learn to find an appreciation of some aspect of sport for their development as young men and women. Each of them, for their exceptional athletes, work above and beyond to support and excel in the fixture programmes and competitions across all sports that build capacity and skills in all schools. In some cases, investment in specialist coaches and international professional links, ensure that the most gifted athletes can continue to aspire to careers in sport on graduating.
When we have looked at schools, we have weighted those that plough back investment into facilities, teacher salaries, resources and school improvements year-on-year to improve education for children.
All of the schools shortlisted endeavour to deliver a benchmark for the best sport education for children available in the UAE.
Finally, we have looked across all areas of provision, investment, innovation and achievement that support each school being shortlisted.
It is worth noting our gratitude to, and recognition of, DASSA, ADISSA, the Dubai School Games and the BSME Games for their absolutely extraordinary achievements in building bridges between schools and pioneering a love of and appreciation of the deep human value in Sport, as a discipline, passion and powerful means to navigate the many challenges of life in all its aspects, across the emirates.
We are still hopeful that, one day, one of our outstanding schools for Sport will set the example of providing competitive netball for boys…
