21st century competencies a priority and focus on providing students with opportunities to master important skills.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> We are an IB PYP candidate school where 21st century competencies are constructively encouraged, developed and applied across transdisciplinary units.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> At OWIS, we follow inquiry-led learning. Our students are free to ask questions, think creatively on a wide range of subjects and explore answers with student-led initiatives. They get\u00a0 learning opportunities both independently and collaboratively by working in groups both inside the classroom and through learning opportunities with other GSF schools. This helps students critically think and communicate their learning experiments with our educators and other students.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> OWIS is a school built with the notion of diversity and inclusivity. Students from different cultures and backgrounds take part in a range of cultural festivals that provide fun and interactive learning opportunities for students. We encourage students to be proud of their own heritage and develop global awareness within their classrooms along with becoming multicultural citizens.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/staging.globalschools.com\/oneworld\/school-tour\/?utm_source=blogs&amp;utm_medium=image_banner&amp;utm_campaign=cta_strip\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-10279 size-full\" style=\"border-radius: 0px !important\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.globalschools.com\/oneworld\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/INTRESTED-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"200\" \/><\/a>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Communication plays a key role in our learning structure and supports the development of students\u2019 soft skills. <span data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:&quot;From kindergarten to primary school students are required to work in collaborative groups or pairs, research on different topics and communicate with others.&quot;}\" data-sheets-userformat=\"{&quot;2&quot;:1061885,&quot;3&quot;:{&quot;1&quot;:0},&quot;5&quot;:{&quot;1&quot;:[{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:0,&quot;5&quot;:{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:0}},{&quot;1&quot;:0,&quot;2&quot;:0,&quot;3&quot;:3},{&quot;1&quot;:1,&quot;2&quot;:0,&quot;4&quot;:1}]},&quot;6&quot;:{&quot;1&quot;:[{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:0,&quot;5&quot;:{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:0}},{&quot;1&quot;:0,&quot;2&quot;:0,&quot;3&quot;:3},{&quot;1&quot;:1,&quot;2&quot;:0,&quot;4&quot;:1}]},&quot;7&quot;:{&quot;1&quot;:[{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:0,&quot;5&quot;:{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:0}},{&quot;1&quot;:0,&quot;2&quot;:0,&quot;3&quot;:3},{&quot;1&quot;:1,&quot;2&quot;:0,&quot;4&quot;:1}]},&quot;8&quot;:{&quot;1&quot;:[{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:0,&quot;5&quot;:{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:0}},{&quot;1&quot;:0,&quot;2&quot;:0,&quot;3&quot;:3},{&quot;1&quot;:1,&quot;2&quot;:0,&quot;4&quot;:1}]},&quot;9&quot;:0,&quot;10&quot;:1,&quot;11&quot;:4,&quot;12&quot;:0,&quot;15&quot;:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;16&quot;:11,&quot;23&quot;:1}\" data-sheets-textstyleruns=\"{&quot;1&quot;:0}\uee10{&quot;1&quot;:21,&quot;2&quot;:{&quot;2&quot;:{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:1136076},&quot;9&quot;:1}}\uee10{&quot;1&quot;:35}\" data-sheets-hyperlinkruns=\"{&quot;1&quot;:21,&quot;2&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/staging.globalschools.com\/oneworld\/riyadh\/primary-school\/&quot;}\uee10{&quot;1&quot;:35}\">From <a style=\"color: #40baec\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.globalschools.com\/oneworld\/riyadh\/kindergarten\/\">kindergarten<\/a> to <a class=\"in-cell-link\" style=\"color: #40baec\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.globalschools.com\/oneworld\/riyadh\/primary-school\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">primary school<\/a> students are required to work in collaborative groups or pairs, research on different topics and communicate with others.<\/span>\u00a0Group work teaches students the importance of communication to reach an end goal through a range of opinions, experiences and insights.
