The Applied Technology Schools
Welcome to The Applied Technology Schools. Our program of study starts in Grade 09 and ends in Grade 12. In Al Ain, Abu Dhabi Girls and Al Dhafrah campuses the program of study starts from Grade 06. Upon completion, the student is awarded the High School Certificate accredited by the Ministry of Education (MoE) in addition to the National Qualification Centre (NQC) level 4 Certificate for cluster-based programs.
The program consists of three different streams:
- Advanced Science Program
- Advanced Stream
- General Stream
Since its establishment, the Applied Technology High School system has offered Emirati youth a career-based technical education. The system provides a solid, high standard Science and Mathematics curriculum that helps create the scientists, engineers and technologists needed to meet the knowledge-based economy of the UAE.
The ATHS system promotes two programs of study that build on the capacity of Emirati students, the ATHS Core Applied Technology Program and the Advanced Science Program.
Through the ATHS Core Applied Technology Program, students are offered academic core subjects combined with cluster-based courses that are customized in accordance with their interest and academic performance. The Core Applied Technology program is presented in Regular and Advanced streams to target students’ differing abilities.
