ARABIC A
All students in Year 12 who are either Emirati or whose UAE residency visa is on an Arab passport are required to take Arabic lessons, as per UAE law and the Ministry of Education Guidelines.
Expatriate students are not required to take Arabic, unless they wish to qualify for an equivalency certificate from the UAE government, confirming that a student has completed their secondary education in the UAE
An Equivalency Certificate is needed for entry to a UAE university and for employment in some government/semi governmental positions in the UAE. Although BSAK does not teach A Level Arabic, students can request to be submitted for the AS Arabic exam, however, it is the responsibility of the student to prepare for this exam through independent study. For further information about these courses, please speak to the Head of Arabic.
