Our Competencies

Personal Education Number (PEN)

Students registered will receive a Personal Education Number (PEN) which is a nine-digit number assigned to each student enrolled or registered with any BC Certified School.

Once issued, the PEN follows the student through their B.C. education path from Early Learning, to Grade 12.

This number is used for multiple purposes including:

  • Transition between BC schools
  • Post-secondary education
  • Final transcripts
  • Student reporting

The BC Curriculum and how it differs from a traditional learning curriculum

The comprehensive curriculum provides an excellent foundation for all areas of learning.

CSB is focused on developing strong literacy and numeracy skills. Sound foundations of literacy and numeracy are skills that are the foundation of BC’s education system and are a key component of developing an educated citizen.

The most important goal of our program is to encourage our students to become self-confident inquisitive and enthusiastic learners.

The BC Curriculum allows children to learn through multiple pathways that help them to make personal connections to their learning. Teachers provide an environment in the classroom in which students are engaged and invested in their learning and ultimately advocate for their own learning.

The Arabic
Program

CSB is committed to ensuring our students have every opportunity to succeed in their Arabic Language, Citizenship and Islamic studies.

The arabic Program

Arabic language and local Citizenship are required courses for all students. Islamic studies are optional for non-Bahraini students.

We follow the Bahrain Ministry of Education curriculum for these subjects however as part of a fully integrated program, the competencies of the BC curriculum are included in the Arabic program.

The school offers the required number of hours and in many instances goes beyond the requirements to ensure that our students can become excellent in their Arabic studies.

The Arabic program includes many service opportunities which are also integrated into the BC program. Students also participate in local language and Quran competitions.

Arabic teachers collaborate with the BC teachers in integrating the curriculum whenever possible. It is another example of CSB's focus on taking a holistic approach to students and their learning.
