1-teachers need anger management classes
2-teachers don’t care about the students they just do their job and leave
3-toxic community for your children
4-any form of staff in the school is unhelpful and any problem you have takes issues to get fixed plus they never take the students seriously
5-nannie’s barely clean the classes they should be cleaned after every day ,bathrooms are clean
6-they lock a lot of their bathrooms which makes it so unaccessible
7-teachers are absent too often
8-no full focus on pe classes
9- staff so stubborn with student needs and requests
moral of the story the academics are well they provide gat classes and math teachers there are super helpful and help you with all external exams but you’ll barely find teachers who actually care to help the principles the people in charge are horrible and i question their ways of running this school also absolutely toxic environment especially for high schoolers

its a good school + there is no sign of bullying (high school student btw)
i usually visit my juniors (9-5 graders im friends with everyone hahaha) and i havent witnessed any bullying which is suprising but its a good surprise
mostly a lively community and very friendly teachers especially ((mrs. hana, mrs. shama, and mrs. mariam, mrs.khadeeja))
totally recommend enrolling your kids (just make sure to spell your childs name correct since i had to correct mine ToT) here they also gave me GAT practice with in my math lessons which where a part of quizzes((thank you mrs. mariam<3)) and SAT practice, OH i almost forgot my kind teacher mrs.Hana will be teaching us how to calculate w/o a calculator, because shes preparing us for Tahsilli exam!! WISH ME LUCK MY GAT EXAM IS TOMORROW!!! (10/8/23)

School has great moral and chooses teachers that will work with the students to help them achieve their best academically. Kids feel confident and my children like to go to school. They didn’t want to go before we switched to this school. The pickup and drop off can be frustrating and hectic. Should be a better plan implemented for the girls section. Overall I am satisfied because my kids are happy and they are learning!

Worst school ever. my daughter lost her self confidence because of the teacher . school admins are not cooperative, there are no communication between parents and school. very crowded classes same as public schools . in my opinion this is one of the worst international schools in Riyadh

It's a great school. I've worked there before, and now my daughter goes to school there. It's well worth the money. The teachers are professional and they care about their students' development and learning skills.

I have had the worst experience any parent could have had to go through with AlFursan School - AlRaka, which cost my daughter a full school year.
The negligence and communication of the school administration had presented complacence in its best form.
It was not enough that due to the administration fault in completing the required registration steps prior to admitting my daughter, the school had not taken the courtesy to neither apologies for their wrong doing nor the decency to return the full school year tuition that had went to drain.
I had to to personally go through the battle to correct the situation to prove that the school admin. had messed up, which involved the ministry.
Very unprofessional management with a problem hiding culture.
