Boarding School Guidance

Choosing the right boarding school is one of the most important decisions you’ll ever make for your child, and it can feel overwhelming. There are countless options, endless admissions criteria, and the pressure of knowing that this choice will shape your child’s future both academically and personally.

At Himma Academy, we take the guesswork, stress, and uncertainty out of the process. Our Boarding School Guidance service is designed for families who want not just a school, but the school, the one that will nurture your child’s abilities, challenge them academically, and help them grow into confident, capable young adults.

We begin with a personalised family consultation, learning everything about your child, their strengths, interests, personality, and long-term aspirations. Then, we research and shortlist only the schools that are the best possible fit, balancing academic reputation, cultural environment, extracurricular opportunities, and pastoral care.

From there, we guide you through the entire admissions process: application strategy, personal statements, interview preparation, and targeted tutoring for entrance exams. Our tutors specialise in preparing students for competitive assessments and bespoke school-specific exams. We don’t just cover the syllabus, we train your child to perform at their absolute best under exam conditions.

For families relocating internationally, we also handle the unique challenges of cultural integration and transition. We make sure your child arrives not only prepared academically but also emotionally ready to thrive in a new environment.

Our commitment is simple: to match your child with a school where they will excel, be understood, and have every opportunity to succeed. With Himma Academy by your side, you’re not just choosing a school, you’re choosing a future.

Testimonials

At Himma Academy, every student we serve receives personalised attention, academic excellence, and unwavering care. But don’t just take our word for it, hear directly from the parents and professionals who trust us with their children’s education.

"As a mother of three, I struggled to find a tutoring service that understood both academic excellence and our values. Himma Academy has been a blessing, my daughter now recites Qur’an with confidence and speaks English fluently. The tutors are not just qualified, they genuinely care."

Fatima A

Riyadh, Full-Time Mother

"We were hesitant about online learning, but Himma made the experience seamless. The tutor connected instantly with our son, and within weeks his grades and confidence improved. This is not just tutoring; it’s a premium, personalised education experience."

Omar K

Dubai, Business Executive

"As an expat family living in Riyadh, we wanted our son to feel rooted in the culture and language of his surroundings. Himma Academy made that possible. His Arabic has progressed far beyond what we imagined and it’s taught in a way that respects both the language and our family’s values. I only wish we had started sooner."

Sarah D

Full time Riyadh, Expat Mother

"As a father working abroad, I needed reliable, faith-conscious academic support for my children back home. Himma delivered that and more. The Islamic Studies program is structured beautifully, and the tutors are role models, not just teachers."
