My kids love get up early in the morning and get ready for school. This in itself is a breakthrough. School has never been so popular with the kids and this has changed all because of your system. The relationship between children and their teachers seem to be finally working and this is a lot to be proud of.

I think you are doing a great job and we hope for your continued success. Thanks again and keep up the good work.

Project Overview

Fakhir Mergasori International School came into being as a result of the recognition of the Prime Minister of the Kurdish Regional Government of the importance of bringing the high-quality SABIS® education to Kurdistan. Through his active support and the partnership with SABIS®, Fakhir Mergasori International School opened in the Kurdistan capital city of Erbil. According to this partnership, the school will adopt the SABIS® international curriculum and will make use of SABIS® books. Moreover, the school’s teachers will undergo a 3-year training program driven by SABIS® education trainers until the school becomes fully operational with local Kurdish staff.
