International schools
We are now able to offer the OPAL International Primary Programme, which has been developed through our work with private-sector international schools in Poland, France, Spain, Malaysia and Singapore.
OPAL is setting up a new base in partnership with the Children's Alliance based in Ithaca New York and also introducing the OPAL Primary Programme to the first USA school in Rockford Illinois
We have an OPAL mentor based in South East Asia
Our South East Asia mentor can support schools across the region and also has specialist knowledge of working in Dubai and the UAE.
Some of the differences of the international program are:
The cost of the OPAL International Primary Programme is £10,000 plus travel. Small not-for-profit schools may be eligible for a discount.
A greater level of pre-visit preparation
A quicker sprint start based on a one-week intensive site visit meeting
Training aimed at the entire school community as they all supervise play
More time allocated to allow for travelling long distances
More design advice available for capital projects
Our international schools have been delighted with the impact of OPAL and have provided the following testimonials and case studies.
