My name is Ms. Parvathy, and I am the Data and Exams Manager at The British International School Abu Dhabi. I am privileged to be working alongside the staff and students here.
I moved to Abu Dhabi from India 14 years ago, and started my career in the Middle East as a Data Manager. From there I progressed into different key roles.
After completing my Master’s in Computer Science at Mahatma Gandhi University, I started as a teaching professional in an Arts College in India.
Having worked in an outstanding education group in Abu Dhabi, I was excited to begin a new journey at The British International School Abu Dhabi, bringing along with me my experience and enthusiasm to help the school grow and flourish.
In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with friends, travelling the world and experiencing new cultures.
I am looking forward to continuing to work closely with all members of the school community to ensure that The British International School Abu Dhabi is one of the happiest, safest and effective schools in Abu Dhabi.
The penultimate week of term always brings a mix of energy and reflection. Lessons are still purposeful, but there is also a sense of looking back, recognising just how far our students have come.
This year, we have seen strong academic success across the school. Students have worked hard, and the outcomes reflect that effort. But just as important have been the achievements beyond the classroom in music, sport, language, technology, and the arts. Our curriculum is broad for a reason, and it has been clear this year that our students are thriving in many ways.
Celebrating Our Shared Success: A Year of Partnership and Recognition
As we approach the end of a vibrant academic year filled with events, achievements, and memorable moments, I am delighted to share some fantastic news with you all. Our school has been honoured with not one, but two prestigious awards in recognition of our commitment to parent engagement: the MENA Parent Partnership Award and the ADEK Best Parent Engagement Award.
Read on to discover how these awards celebrate our collaborative culture, highlight parent-school partnerships, and support meaningful improvements for our students.
It’s something I’ve believed for a long time — that learning isn’t predetermined by our genes. It’s about growing, persevering, and learning through the process. I was really mindful of this idea at this week’s wonderful Primary Summer Concert, after which I found myself reflecting on whether these amazing children have an innate talent, or whether they have achieved so much because of hard work and practice.
I believe it’s the latter. These children, their parents, and their teachers all seem to share the belief that by trying and working hard, they will get better at what they do. This is what we call a growth mindset.
This week at BIS Abu Dhabi, we have had the joy of celebrating both ends of the school journey and it has been a beautiful reminder of how we support our students to dream big and grow into their future selves.
