The Project.

Horizon English School is a non-selective, private school in Dubai. It provides English curriculum education for international students aged between 3 and 11 years old from more than 47 countries.

Having partnered with Cognita Education on a number of successful past projects, Kidzink were invited to revitalise the latest UAE school to join the Cognita family – Horizon International School.

​Horizon International School Principal Darren Gale spoke with our team about his excitement for a ‘new trajectory’ for his popular and growing Dubai school.

Darren, there is so much going on this summer at HIS! How has working with Kidzink helped make all these changes and upgrades happen – so fast?

Kidzink just gets it. They really get education. To kick things off, the team came in and just listened to what I had to say. They went away and interpreted my ideas…just right! I’ve found that, every step of the way, there has been real consultation and real listening from Kidzink. Jennifer, Richard, Charlotte – everyone…in a short space of time the whole Kidzink team have shown a great understanding of what we want to achieve at HIS. It’s been a partnership, a feeling of “people over paper,” you know? It strikes me that relationships are at the heart of Kidzink’s work, and that really resonates with our own culture here at Horizon International School.
