Beam Creative Science Schools Receive Prestigious Promethean Award

Beam Creative Science Schools recognised for their advanced and innovative classroom technology

Sharjah, UAE, March 3, 2016:  Bukhatir Education Advancement & Management (Beam) has once more been recognized for its pursuit of academic excellence through classroom technology and innovation after it was presented with a Promethean Centre of Excellence Award, thereby making two Beam schools the only ones in the Middle East to have attained the prestigious accolade.

Promethean is a global provider of interactive educational technology solutions that develop, integrate and implement groundbreaking learning environments, with the Award that carries its name recognizing quality teaching practices that use futuristic methods that facilitate an enhanced experience for both tutor and pupil.
International School of Creative Science (ISCS) and American School of Creative Science (ASCS), operated by Beam, went through a stringent evaluation process undertaken by Promethean. Despite the increase in award applications year-on-year as well, no other school in the region was able to satisfy all of Promethean’s exacting requirements.

Commenting on the award, Salah A Bukhatir, Chairman and CEO of Beam, said: “Being a leader in the market as the only custodian of Promethean’s Centre of Excellence Award in the entire Middle East yet again is testimony of our scalable academic centre of excellence model. We look forward to replicating this model and acquiring this prestigious status for our forthcoming new schools in Dubai and Sharjah, which will be opening this September.”

Mr Bukhatir continued: “The vision of Beam from the beginning has been to see our educational system expand its reach and benefits to the largest community possible. We’re happy to provide leadership on this subject to the wider educational sector.”

Mr Robert Speed, Promethean Head of Middle East Region, added: “This award is a further validation of Beam’s 360-degree educational environment that is designed to connect technology to human ingenuity, teachers to their students and every participant to a whole new world of learning.”

Beam’s future plans involve building on its position as a leader in classroom technology.
