"To prepare
students our for better success"
|
The "OMAR Centre" science Laboratory at Kuwait National
English School in Hawally has a suite of
specialist laboratories for each of the sciences and
offers newly acquired data-logging equipment. This equipment
allows students to automatically follow changes in
temperature, humidity, light, sound, ph, etc. by connecting the
data-logger and its sensors into the computers of the
newly developed IT suite. In addition we offer the
latest Crocodile Clips software in Chemistry, Physics,
Mathematics
and IT that allows students and teachers to recreate
experiments, model mathematical theories or simulate real life
situations quickly and easily. They are virtual
laboratories and immersive experiences which engage student
interest and enthusiasm during lesson time. |

The "OMAR Computer
Laboratory", has been added to existing computer facilities
which is equipped with IBM computers. The "OMAR" Laboratory
includes the latest Pentium IV PC's which allow students to
have access to the recently launched Microsoft hi speed
educational software. Each student has individual access to a computer
in order to maximise
their learning. |

Students are
encouraged at Kuwait National English School in Hawally to
develop their skills by utilising the suite's word processing,
spread sheet and desk top facilities as well as printing
off work for project portfolios. Particular emphasis has
been placed designing the new IT suite to
meet the needs of the IGCSE and A-level students.
Close liaison within the school between Mathmatics, Science, Business Studies
and Economics Departments
has resulted in the introduction of cross-curricular
schemes to promote IT for the teaching of topics at
IGCSE and A-Level and as well as at Primary
Level. |

|
The networked system
allows students to conduct research for project work or pursue
their extra-curricular interests at the daily computer clubs.
To build upon the success of last year's encouraging IGCSE
results, Kuwait National School, in Hawally has introduced a
wide range of A-Levels. Madame Chantal Al Gharabally, who has
also worked in Further and Higher Education is the Mentor of
the Sixth Form and Year 10 Fast track. |

been appointed as the Head of Science at Kuwait National
English School. He has lectured in the UK and taught in
