Nord Anglia International School Abu Dhabi UAE History Timeline

We featured UAE History on the walls of Nord Anglia International School.

Nord Anglia International School Abu Dhabi offers a learning experience designed for the future. The school says it offers a learning experience like no other. The deliver world-class teaching, outstanding facilities and extraordinary learning experiences.

We were delighted to support the school in enhancing their learning environment. Using multiple walls around the building, we created powerful visual displays, designed bespoke to the school. At its centre, a visual Timeline that tracks the course of History in the UAE. This powerful design takes pupils on a journey, from the country’s earliest beginnings to present day.

Pupils will feel a sense of pride as they see how their country has evolved. And the Timeline serves as a powerful learning aid too.

Branded, professional design

A world-class school deserves best in class design. So our expert team worked closely with the school to bring their vision to life. We branded the Wall Art with the school’s colours. And we used a mix of wall coverage for high impact. For example; half-height designs for the Timeline life the eye upwards and create interest and mental stimulation for pupils. While a globe image design covers a full wall on the outside of a stairwell. This reflects the school’s global community and its impact around the world.

We worked around existing fixtures and fittings when installing the bespoke Wall Art designs. So the end result looks inherent and blends seamlessly into its environment. It attracts attention for all the right reasons and creates a positive visual environment for students, staff and visitors to enjoy.

Why Wall Art?

Marie McDermott is our dedicated Wall Art Consultant in the UAE. She is a former teacher and a passionate advocate of creative learning environments. She explains;

“Schools in the UAE invest heavily in EdTech devices, software and digital tools that enhance learning. But often, the physical environment is left behind. Many school buildings feel functional rather than purposeful. When walls are uninspiring, students stop noticing them – they just become wallpaper.

But, when spaces are designed intentionally, using premium materials and an educational eye, they do so much more. Wall Art can spark curiosity, reinforce learning, build vocabulary and connect learning to the real world. When children love the environment they learn in, they talk about it. Students, staff, families and visitors to the school notice. It changes how a school feels and how it’s remembered.”
