Social & emotional learning	Social & emotional learning The school does not publicly disclose explicit Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) programs on its site. The About Us page presents a Profile of Graduates with values such as INQUIRERS, KNOWLEDGEABLE, REFLECTIVE, COMMUNICATIVE, PRINCIPLED, RISK-TAKERS and OPEN-MINDED; these reflect social-emotional aims but are described as graduate attributes rather than a formal SEL program. The site describes a bilingual environment and emphasis on national and global responsibility, which can support social-emotional development but does not detail specific SEL initiatives. There is no listed dedicated SEL staff or coordinator in the Senior Leadership Team. Therefore, explicit SEL provision is not publicly disclosed on the school's site.	Social & emotional learning NGPS Bahrain supports Social and Emotional Learning through two social counselors and by delivering wellbeing-focused assemblies and student clubs that foster self-esteem, public speaking, healthy relationships, anti-bullying, and related themes.
Special educational needs (SEN)	Special educational needs (SEN) The school does not publicly disclose information regarding SEN provision. The Curriculum Overview describes Primary, Middle, and High School curricula but contains no SEN policy or guidance. The About Us page lists vision and values but makes no reference to SEN services. The Senior Leadership Team page lists senior roles but no SEN coordinator or equivalent post. Therefore, explicit information about SEN provision is not publicly disclosed.	Special educational needs (SEN) NGPS states that it places equal importance on learners with varying needs but does not have facilities to support SEN, and may refuse admission if a student's needs require services NGPS cannot provide.
English as an additional language	English as an additional language The school operates in a bilingual environment, indicating instruction in more than one language. The Profile of Graduates notes that students communicate in more than one language. However, no formal EAL programs, staffing, or progression details are publicly disclosed. The curriculum pages describe general learning in Primary, Middle, and High School but do not provide EAL-specific provisions. Therefore, explicit EAL information is not publicly disclosed on awis.edu.bh.	English as an additional language NGPS indicates students are bi-lingual and provides English-language instruction with library resources in English and Arabic; there is no publicly disclosed dedicated EAL program.
Mental wellbeing	Mental wellbeing A counselling department wellness checks program was reported as part of sustainability and well-being initiatives, introduced for parents, students, and staff. This wellness-check initiative is described in Gulf Insider as being implemented by the counselling department around 2021. The school's Our History page also notes that emotional support programs were part of teaching and learning policies in 2020. The public site does not publish a dedicated mental wellbeing section detailing programs or staff. Therefore, explicit, publicly disclosed mental wellbeing provisions are limited to those external reports.	Mental wellbeing Mental wellbeing is supported by two social counselors and by wellbeing-oriented activities such as morning assemblies that address self-esteem and topics like healthy relationships and environment.
Safeguarding	Safeguarding There is no dedicated Safeguarding or Child Protection policy page published on awis.edu.bh. A 2020 action plan includes community safety as a focus, indicating safeguarding-related measures at that time. The Accreditations page concentrates on external accreditations (Cambridge, Pearson Edexcel, MSA-CESS, etc.) rather than safeguarding specifics. The Senior Leadership Team page lists roles but does not show a designated safeguarding lead. Consequently, safeguarding policies are not publicly disclosed on the school's site.	Safeguarding Safeguarding is addressed through an external transport company operating under strict child-safeguarding rules and the school maintains an on-site nurse to support students' health.

Ages for Early Years and Primary entry are defined as follows: Early Years Foundation Stage comprises ages 3-5 (Nursery, KG-1, KG-2) with 3-year-olds eligible for Nursery, 4-year-olds for KG-1, and 5-year-olds for KG-2. Primary School entry requires students to be 6 years old and meet all admission requirements. 3. Application process follows a step-by-step path: requests for enrollment are accepted online, by phone, or in person; prospective parents receive an information packet; a meeting with the Admissions Officer explains the programme and answers questions; the prospective student completes an entry assessment; on successful assessment and Principal approval, the parent submits the registration forms. The school maintains a continuous admissions policy throughout the year. 4. There are criteria for admission withdrawal and potential reasons for refusing admission: the school may refuse or limit enrollment if the program requires significant modification, if the student requires services not provided by NGPS, if there is persistent behavior problems or unsatisfactory academic performance, if policies or discipline codes are not adhered to, or if full educational records have not been disclosed. 5. Documents required in the first stages of the admission process include a Transfer Certificate from the previous school; the original CPR for the student and both parents; proof of residency; two passport-sized photographs; a copy of the student's birth certificate; immunization records and health form; the previous year's school report (for admission to Grade 1 and above); and a Certificate of Equivalency from the Bahrain Ministry of Education for students transferring from outside Bahrain. 6.
