 What Makes Us Different

Hillier Designed Campus

The facilities at Riffa Views International School are second to none.  RVIS engaged the services of RMJM Hillier Architecture to complete the design of the school.  Hillier, a US based company, are experts in school design and construction and have years of experience in designing overseas schools.  They have also been involved in the design of some of the premier private schools in the United States. Hillier has created a school design with beautiful, well-lit classrooms, landscaped central courtyards and warm welcoming façades.

  
RVIS LIBRARY

The RVIS library has purposely been designed to act as a bridge between the elementary and secondary programs.  Its bright, spacious windows and natural light have become a focal point of the school. 

Five specially designed science laboratories, dedicated fine and performing arts facilities and world-class athletic facilities demonstrate our school's commitment to excellence in every aspect of our students' education.  RVIS brings a new level of school design to the Kingdom of Bahrain.

  
Quality Faculty Recruited from Around the World

The faculty of Riffa Views International School has been carefully selected from the very best available teachers from around the world. Annual recruiting trips by the Director ensures that our faculty is of the highest caliber. We aim specifically to recruit teachers with prior experience teaching in North American curriculum schools. RVIS faculty are committed to ongoing professional development, providing personalized instruction, and presenting a child centered, stimulating academic program of the highest possible quality.  In addition, they  actively promote the social and emotional well being of every child under their care.  Our school is a warm, friendly place for children overseen by a caring engaged faculty. RVIS is committed to providing an organized, ongoing professional development program for its teachers to ensure that up-to-date educational practices are continually made available to the children of RVIS. We have a truly outstanding faculty to match our outstanding facilities.

 

Integration of the Latest Educational Technology


From its inception Riffa Views International School has made a commitment to providing the highest quality technology resources for its students. The technological infrastructure available to RVIS students is truly exceptional.  The entire school has been wired with fiber-optic cable as well as a wireless network throughout the campus. This technological infrastructure  allows us to seamlessly integrate high-speed internet, intranet, videoconferencing and provide state-of-the-art home/school communication anywhere on campus.  Interactive Smart Boards and LCD projectors are  standard equipment in all RVIS classrooms.  Thin client laptops are available for every student in every academic classroom. RVIS is a regional and global leader in the use of technology resources in education.

 

World Class Athletic Facilities

Our location in the Riffa Views housing development provides us with unique access to world-class sporting facilities. Our students have access to the Riffa Views Colin Montgomerie PGA level championship golf course, indoor and outdoor tennis facilities located on campus (six outdoor courts and one indoor court), a 25-meter competition swimming pool with an adjacent training pool for young children, and a large purpose built gymnasium. As we grow as a school our intention will be to participate in regional athletic events as well as to capitalize on our unique ability to engage students in life-long sporting activities.
