Purpose & Process
- Creating an inclusive school environment is not just about compliance—it’s about ensuring that every student, regardless of ability, thrives academically, socially, and emotionally. Schools that prioritise inclusion foster a culture of equity, respect, and high achievement for all learners. By acquiring the Quality Inclusion Stamp, schools demonstrate their commitment to creating accessible learning environments that meet the needs of all students, including People of Determination. The first level of the QIS – Bronze – involves a self-assessment rubric designed to help schools evaluate their inclusion practices against the UAE School Inspection Framework and the Quality Inclusion Stamp Self-Assessment Criteria. Schools that meet these high standards position themselves as leaders in inclusive education, gaining recognition for excellence and innovation in supporting diverse learners. The rubric covers nine key areas, each with specific Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and clearly defined evidence or documentation required to support the assessment. A grading scale (1-5) is provided for each piece of evidence, ensuring a clear measure of progress toward outstanding inclusion. By using this tool, schools can: Identify strengths and areas for improvement in inclusion practices. Enhance student success by ensuring equitable access to learning opportunities. Build a culture of acceptance and respect that benefits the entire school community. Strengthen their reputation as a school of choice for inclusive education. Following your successful completion of Level 1; two additional levels of accreditation involve on site appraisal from expert International Inspectors and third party accreditation from international bodies. Earning the Quality Inclusion Stamp is more than an accolade—it’s a reflection of a school’s unwavering dedication to student success and inclusive excellence.
