Facilities

The school has an excellent array of first class facilities that help to provide a wonderful ‘working’ environment for pupils and staff. We are also very proud of the space available for children to enjoy play and socialising during breaks, before and after school and during our diverse and varied ECA (Extra Curricular Activity) programme.

Classrooms are well equipped and well resourced for teaching and learning, and we are always looking to improve and upgrade in line with educational trends. Specialist facilities for art, drama, music, sport, ICT, design & technology, science, food technology and a well stocked and spacious library all add significantly to the children’s educational experience and opportunities. A carefully planned and managed building and resourcing development programme over recent years has ensured that TES has the best facilities on offer in Kuwait and we are very much the envy of our friends in other schools.
