Welcome from the Director

 


It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to Al-Bayan Bilingual School (BBS) for the 2023-2024 academic year.  Whether you are a prospective or new family, or perhaps you have been with us for many years, I trust that you will find BBS to be an inclusive and supportive learning community.  
 
As the leading bilingual school in Kuwait, we have and long and proud tradition of achieving outstanding outcomes for our students who go on to become leaders in Kuwait and throughout the world.
 
As I begin my 7th year at BBS, I am honored to serve this wonderful school community as its Director.  Having started my career over 20 years ago in a remote school in outback Australia, I have enjoyed living and working in a range of communities and schools across Australia, China and the Middle East.  As with most people who have a passion for learning and education, I consider myself a lifelong learner, and have been fortunate to earn undergraduate degrees in both Applied Science and Education, as well as a postgraduate degree in Business Administration.  My family and I highly value the opportunities a comprehensive education can offer, and my focus is to ensure that every single child at BBS is afforded every opportunity to be their best and to achieve at the highest levels.
 
We have an amazing staff throughout BBS.  From Central Office, to our Leadership Team, to our teachers and support staff, we are all committed to providing an amazing educational experience for our students.
 
Again, welcome to BBS, and please do not hesitate to reach out if I can be of assistance in any way.
 
Warm regards,
 
 
 
Mr. Kevin Fullbrook 
Director
 

 
 
Welcome to Al-Bayan Bilingual School! My name is Paul Said, and I am privileged to assist you in my capacity of Deputy Director.
 
Since 1977, BBS has been a leading bilingual educational institution, aiming at preparing and inspiring students to become lifelong learners, ethical and innovative change agents in Kuwait and the global environment. We carry on our mission this year with a greater focus on students’ talents as well as the myriad opportunities in which students can build their character, develop leadership and lead an impactful and fulfilling school life. Exceptional learning happens at BBS both inside the classroom led by professional educators from the heart, as well as outside the classroom, in students’ clubs & activities, international trips and field experiences. 
 
I have served as a ‘Youth Talks’ teacher and Middle School Principal at a school-network in Beirut-Lebanon, as well as a scouts’ leader for more than 15 years, and now, I begin my third year at BBS. I feel honored to be part of the professional community of educators and staff. At BBS, we are committed to guaranteeing a student-centered educational experience, while maintaining a safe, intercultural, compassionate and engaging learning environment. 
 
I look forward to meeting and interacting with our students, parents and community members, and wish you all an empowering educational journey within our school. 
 
Warmest welcome,

 

Mr. Paul Said
Deputy Director
