Inclusion That Helps Every Child Thrive
Inclusion is at the heart of Sunmarke, ensuring every child feels supported, understood and able to succeed.
Inclusion sits at the heart of Sunmarke’s ethos. We proudly welcome a diverse range of learners from EYFS through Secondary, ensuring every child feels seen, supported and empowered to succeed. The Achievement Centre leads this vision, working closely with parents, teachers and external specialists to create personalised pathways that remove barriers and unlock potential.
“ Laila is a Global Ambassador representing sports for People of Determination worldwide. She was an outstanding member of our Secondary Life Skills Class and gained the qualifications to be accepted into the Dubai College of Leisure and Tourism further education programme. We are incredibly proud of her, and she continues to inspire our students to believe in their dreams.”
Ms Jayne West

Stories like Laila’s reflect the true spirit of inclusion at Sunmarke — where every learner is encouraged to grow with confidence, courage and pride.
Support That Makes a Difference
To enable full participation and progress, Sunmarke offers a wide range of additional provisions at no extra cost, subject to availability.
Our school is also an accredited centre for BTEC Introductory Awards, offering both academic and vocational pathways in areas such as Business Administration, Media, Health & Fitness and Hospitality.
Our SEND department has been commended in our most recent DSIB inspection, reflecting our strong commitment to inclusive practices and student success.
Fortes English Language Programme
For students new to English, the Fortes English Language Programme offers an intensive, immersive learning experience. Through cross-curricular teaching — integrating Art, Drama, PE, Music and core subjects — students rapidly build academic English, everyday communication skills and cultural understanding. This approach accelerates language acquisition and strengthens subject-specific proficiency across the curriculum.
