Hospital Schools

In an effort to ensure the provision of education to children who are unable to attend school for long periods of treatment due to medical needs, Bahrain Trust Foundation introduced the school programme "3alimny" as a hospital school model applied around the world.

The programme provides several educational services to hospitalized students to support their education and develop their academic skills, in addition to exploring and refining their academic and creative competencies — both inside the hospital and outside it.

The hospital school is a single, multistage classroom which includes children of different ages, abilities and backgrounds, where the teaching emphasis is on the student as an individual. Modern teaching methods such as project-based learning and the STEAM approach are adopted, promoting self-learning and collaborative learning through modern technology.
