CIS Preparatory Visit
In November 2017, members of the CIS (Council of International Schools) came to visit our school for an inspection visit as we continue on our journey to become a fully accredited CIS member school.
We have recently heard very positive feedback from the Director of School Support and Evaluation, Ray Davis, who has informed us that we are in a strong position to move forward with the Accreditation process with the Council Of International Schools.
We would like to acknowledge and thank all the staff that were involved in enabling this success. We are currently working on the recommendations given to us by CIS including establishing our committee to progress Ajman Academy to becoming a certified CIS member school.
"What’s Cooking" by Chef Yasser is Ajman Academy’s new catering provider
After a wonderfully successful first week, we are pleased to announce that Ajman Academy has teamed up with Chef Yasser as our new cafeteria provider.
With over 25 years in the industry, Chef Yasser Jnedi brings a wealth of knowledge, expertise and passion to his role at Chef Yasser.
In the words of Chef Yasser
“Our founders are parents first, and chefs second. This means that we understand, appreciate, and very carefully implement the standards of healthy eating that we provide to our very own children on a daily basis.
This is achieved through a variety of factors, such as using fresh and high quality ingredients in our cooking, using no additives, and ensuring that our meals are balanced and contain the relevant quantities of each food group in order to make sure that your children - our children - are receiving their nutrition just as they would at home.”
If you have any queries regarding AJAC catering please email Ms Yasmeen on y.ali@ajmanacademy.com
