Founder’s word
Everyone has his or her dream; some prefer wealth, others choose kids, and other people may prefer health, but one of them was never enough for me; I have always dreamt to have them all. Having my own school was my obsessive dream since I was doing my masters in England when I saw the wonderful opportunities the kids have there to develop their skills. As soon as I got my Ph.D. in methodology from Cambridge university, I started my serious steps to prepare myself for establishing my own school by studying School management in Harvard University to cope with the latest techniques of running such a crucial business. Having completed my diploma in School management from Harvard University, I flew immediately to Ukraine to start the foundations of my Dream. Although I am originally from Egypt, But I have always considered Ukraine as my second mother land since I got married to my beautiful Ukrainian wife and had my wonderful sons which was another consolidating reason why I have to make my own school where my kids will nourish their skills with the blended mixture of British, American, German, and Japanese education which is implanted in the curriculum we are currently using in our Academy and supervised by Pearson University and Edexcel In London.
Our academy is covering a wide range of learners; starting from little kids to prepare them for joining our International school, to undergraduate Students who wish to be prepared to join an International University, to Graduates who wish to evolve their career opportunities by learning a variety of languages. The 3D interactive boards and projectors installed in every class are supporting our student-centered learning education presented in our academy; therefore, all our current students find it amusing to learn in our academy. The versatile range of subjects given to our learners either in our kids’ center or our International school, prepares our learners to build a new generation of skillful citizens who can face the ups and downs of life. Also, the professional educational consultation given to our graduate students helps them to cope with the exponential changes in our life. Unlike most of the Schools in Ukraine, The Royal English Academy is not just a certified place from both Edexcel, and Pearson University, but also tailors its own curriculum to cope with the standard of the heterogeneous learners enrolled in our Academy.
In conclusion, My dream is a reflection of every parent’s dream and I invite every parent and learner in Ukraine to visit us and I am totally sure that they will not leave the place till they reserve a place for their kid or for them in our Academy, simply because any person visiting the place will understand the fact that it is not just a place for collecting money, but a place where the skills are improved, characters are built, and knowledge is given in a totally healthy, safe, and amiable educational environment.

Our Curriculum
The Royal English Academy Curriculum was set up as a way of ensuring each learner in our academy received the same educational opportunities wherever they were educated in the country. There are two main aims of our Curriculum; these are:
Aim 1: To provide opportunities for all pupils to learn and to achieve.
Aim 2: To promote pupils’ spiritual, moral, social and cultural development and prepare all pupils for the opportunities, responsibilities and experiences of life.
The four main purposes of our Curriculum are:
1) To establish an entitlement of learning for pupils such as knowledge, understanding, skills and attitudes necessary for their self-fulfillment and development as active and responsible citizens.
2) To establish national standards for the performance of all pupils in the subjects it includes. These standards can be used to set targets for improvement, measure progress towards those targets, and monitor and compare performance between individuals, groups and schools.
3) To promote a coherent national framework that promotes curriculum continuity and is sufficiently flexible to ensure progression in pupils’ learning. It facilitates the transition of pupils between schools and phases of education and provides a foundation for lifelong learning.
4) To promote public understanding of, and confidence in, the work of our academy and in the learning and achievements resulting from compulsory education. It provides a common basis for discussion of educational issues among lay and professional groups, including pupils, parents, teachers, governors and employers.
