Safa British School follows the National Curriculum for England, starting with the Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum in FS1 and FS2, incorporating the Curiosity Approach to foster exploration and creativity. The curriculum progresses through Key Stages 1 and 2, covering core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, alongside Arabic, Islamic Studies, and a range of other subjects.

In Key Stage 3, the school continues with the English National Curriculum, focusing on both academic rigour and soft skills development through the ‘Learning Gears’ framework. Students in Year 10 embark on the I/GCSE programme, which includes core subjects and a wide range of elective I/GCSE and BTEC options such as Psychology, Business, and Media Studies. The curriculum aims to develop independent learning, resilience, and confidence, preparing students for further education and the workplace.

The school places a strong emphasis on holistic education, offering over 90 extracurricular activities in sports, arts, and academics, with a significant number provided free of charge. Physical education is integral, and students participate in various sports, often at external facilities like Safa Park, enhancing both their physical and social well-being. Safa British School is dedicated to preparing students not just academically but also through personal growth and life skills development, supported by a close partnership with families and the local community.
