STUDENT HAPPINESS
WELL-BEING AND HEALTHY LIFESTYLES PROGRAMMES
Every day schools strive to provide the best possible experience for their
students in helping them to reach their full potential. SRS ensures that the
following takes place:
Well-being as an educational theme
Students’ feeling of well-being is significant for their social improvement
and personal growth. We consider what we teach, how we teach it and
how students are organised to be very significant for well-being
development. Our curriculum will embed the UAE Moral Education
Programme (MEP) which was officially launched in March 2017. The aims
of the programme are to build character, instil ethical outlook, foster
community and endear culture. It is believed that the MEP will help
contribute to the UAE’s happiness agenda. SRS has worked closely with
KHDA Lighthouse programme to enable the school to focus on
wellbeing, happiness and holistic development of our students. This has
given students the opportunity to be part of ‘Treasures of Hatta’ well-
being project, contributed to KHDA ISB design thinking project and help
pilot the Dubai Student Well-being census.
