In the Arabic track, the language of instruction is Arabic, with English taught at an advanced level. Students also learn French or Spanish as a third language.
In grades 6-8, students learn Mathematics and Sciences in English. History is taught in Arabic or English, according to the students' first language. Students continue to learn English, Arabic, and French at different levels.
AIA also focuses on creating a strong understanding of the social sciences. This focus enables students to form a strong personal identity that is grounded in a deep and informed perspective on history, embracing their place in society while also understanding and respecting the perspectives of other societies. To that end, AIA has developed a world history curriculum for the middle years section in Arabic.
