Dear Parents,
We have been receiving numerous phone calls and inquiries about the letter sent out with students with regards to the papers requested by the Ministry as part of the completion of the registration process. We are hereby assuring you that there is no need to panic. This is a normal Ministry requirement from any new school, and we are considered new.  So, with respect to the requests we have received from parents and to meet the wishes of everyone, some of the points of the declaration have been modified in accordance with the Ministry decisions and laws governing the educational process. The School has amended the form as per attached.
We still kindly ask you to complete the below paperwork (if you had not done so yet):

  1. A copy of parent ID (Father & Mother).
  2. A copy of the student ID (if his\her age is above 16). Foreign students have to submit a copy of the passport and a valid residency form.
  3. 6 photos for the student.
  4. A signed copy of the attached declaration.
  5. Updated parents’ information (Telephone Nos., Email addresses and Residential Addresses).

Please give this matter your prompt attention. All required documents have to be delivered to the registrar office by 29th March 2018 at the latest.

Thank you.
