A new CBSE syllabus school promoted by prominent non-resident Indians (NRIs) has been announced in Dubai and will open in the next academic year.

Credence High School will be one of the few schools in the region that will follow the innovative XSEED programme of learning promoted by iDiscoveri, a widely acclaimed academic solution that focuses on collaborative learning and experiential educational programmes.

Promoters of the school include Nalapad Ahmed Abdulla, managing director, Nalapad Group Overseas, Sameer K Mohammed, managing director, Jaleel Holdings and Dr Azad Moopen, chairman of DM Healthcare and MIMS India.

Class rooms are equipped with the latest interactive tools and come with a technology backbone that deploys an array of IT gadgets that are imperative for collaborative and experiential learning, he added.
