Oliver Thompson
Head of Upper School
Since moving to Dubai in 2018, I am now entering my eighth year at Wellington International School. I am extremely proud of our students' growth and accomplishments during their time here. Regardless of their starting point, year group, or ability, we ensure that every student has the right opportunities at the right time. As Head of Upper School, I support students into and through their GCSE options where they enjoy a wide range of subject choices that support them in taking their next steps onto our A-Level or IB pathways.
I genuinely care about all students at WIS and their personal journeys with us. I believe strongly that students should make the most of their school experience by embracing the incredible opportunities and extracurricular activities we offer. A student's education is not just reflected in their academic results, but also in the friends they make, the skills they develop, and the experiences they gain throughout their educational journey.
