Al Salam Community School (ASCS) in Dubai has been awarded the prestigious Wellbeing Award for Schools (2026-2028), recognising excellence in student mental health and pastoral care.
We are thrilled to announce that Al Salam Community School (ASCS) has officially received the Wellbeing Award for Schools (WAS) accreditation for the 2026-2028 period.

A Mark of Excellence in Pastoral Care
The Wellbeing Award, developed in partnership with the National Children’s Bureau, is a rigorous UK-based framework. Achieving this award is highly prestigious; it verifies that a school does not simply treat mental health as an ‘add-on’, but embeds it into the very fabric of the school culture. It demonstrates that ASCS meets the highest international standards for emotional support and resilience building.
Prioritising Mental Health for Our Community
For parents searching for a nurturing educational environment, this accreditation offers peace of mind. It signifies that ASCS has:
- Robust strategies to promote positive mental health.
- Reduced stigma surrounding emotional wellbeing.
- Established clear support networks for both pupils and staff.
Leading the Way for British Schools in Dubai
In the dynamic Dubai education landscape, this award aligns ASCS with the KHDA’s vision for student wellness and the Dubai Wellbeing Census. While we are known for academic rigour, this award distinguishes us as a school that balances high performance with happiness. It confirms our commitment to producing well-rounded, resilient global citizens who are truly ready to learn.
