• The Home™ Boarding Experience
  Home™ enables students to experience accountable responsibility in a safe, structured, and monitored educational environment. Students at Home™acquire essential learning and working habits that encourage the natural development of individual talent, self-organization and time-management. Through teamwork, they learn advanced communication skills in a miniature society based on friendship and family- all under the guidance of an international team of educationalists and mentors of the highest caliber.

• A Novel Concept in Education
  At traditional boarding schools, students study in the same compound in which they live. Their classmates are the same colleagues that share their rooms, dining table, and their life after school hours. Their teachers at school are the same individuals that supervise them in their dormitories. In short, traditional boarding school conditions do not resemble by any measure the normal life settings of a student living at home with his or her parents. One of the greatest misconceptions about traditional boarding schools is that students develop independence, when in reality, limiting conditions drive students into automation and reliance on preset factors. Home™ is a novel concept that dares to challenge these traditional boarding school settings by placing students in similar life conditions to those they would experience at home.

• Home™ away from Home
  Home™ is a boarding program that enables students to experience school life as though they were living at home. That is, during the day, students attend a day school, only to return after school hours to an independent housing facility that meets the highest standards of safety and security, and that resembles their home. At this Home™, students live with mentors that perform day-to-day parental duties, with the added advantage of having academic and disciplinary support provided to them by a team of highly trained educators.

• Third Parent™
  Home™ is managed and supervised by C-Pi^® educators referred to as Third Parents™. The use of this term is not casual; rather these specialist teachers become akin to ‘Third Parents’ to their students, living with them at Home™, catering to their day-to-day needs, visiting their school regularly to follow-up on detailed academic and social progress, and providing them with a supporting home-schooling program that emphasizes character-building and empowerment at its very core.

• Continuous Academic and Social Follow-up
  At Home™, each student is assigned a C-Pi^® educational consultant that acts as the student's schooling guardian, to follow-up on the student’s detailed academic and social progress. Feedback collected on school visits is passed on to the student's Third Parents™ at Home™, along with an extensive home-schooling package individually designed to boost the student's academic achievement.

• Home-Schooling Program
  The C-Pi^® Home-Schooling Program is a tailor-made course of tuition, designed and implemented by a team of subject specialists and academicians to maximize a student’s achievement whether in British, American, or local curricula. This program does not stop at ensuring that homework is completed, and that exams are prepared and planned for. Rather, C-Pi^® steps beyond to empower its students, training them in essential study habits, learning techniques, communication skills, and positive social attributes, ethics, and morals.

• Character building and Empowerment
  As an inherent aspect of its structure, Home™ provides its students with the opportunity to establish independence, responsibility, organization, and time management as core characteristics of their personality, transforming their perception of education from an unpleasant chore into a natural and enjoyable way of life.

• Age Groups and Facilities
  Admission to Home™ is open to students aged 8-17 years. Boys and girls (supervised by female teachers) live in separate facilities, and are grouped in separate dormitories according to age. Dormitory rooms may accommodate up to a maximum of two students, and come with a refrigerator, multi-channel satellite TV system (monitored). C-Pi^® provides its boarding students with three meals daily and weekly laundry and housekeeping. In addition to the round-the-clock monitoring and supervision by Third Parents™, each facility enjoys 24-hour internal security.

• Available Schooling Systems
  C-Pi^® offers various combinations of IB, British, and  American curricula. Most Home™ graduates pursue their university education in the United States, Canada, Europe, and the Middle East. Over recent years, many school graduates have opted alternatively to remain in the UAE to study at American, Australian, and European universities established locally. Whatever the parents’ choice of curriculum, C-Pi^® will create a detailed life education plan for its Home™ students, and will provide dedicated academic support and follow-up to ensure its delivery and success.

• Extracurricular Activities, Competitions, and Trips
  The true strength of Home™ lies in its essence. In keeping with the fact that educational and social development go hand in hand, Home™ is based on the natural structure of family, so that students and their teachers interact together during curricular and extracurricular activities. Students and educators at Home™ participate together in recreational activities that run after school hours. Home™ provides a vibrant program that includes poetry fairs, art shows, science exhibitions, games, competitive league sports (basketball, swimming, horse-riding etc), painting and artwork, music and singing, computer and technology clubs and much more. During the evenings, visits are organized to leisure and cultural locations around Dubai and Sharjah, with weekend trips to other parts of the United Arab Emirates.

• Visas and Residence Permits
  Initially C-Pi^® will arrange visit visas for its Home™ students and their parents. Upon registration, C-Pi^® will then arrange residence permits for all its students and their parents, allowing students to pursue their education in the UAE, and allowing their parents to visit them as often as they would like.
