Liam Fletcher
Assistant Headteacher - Director of A-level
My educational journey began at Repton School in the UK, where I completed both my GCSEs and A-Levels. Driven by a deep passion for design and engineering, I pursued a First-Class Honours Degree at the University of Wales, and more recently have achieved my National Professional Qualification for Headteachers.
Over the course of my career, I have had the privilege of working and leading in esteemed institutions such as Repton School Dubai and Markham College in Peru. These experiences have enriched my perspective and deepened my commitment to delivering high-quality education in a global context. I have led the transformation of A-Level programmes in UK schools, earning outstanding recognition from OFSTED and pioneering bespoke university pathways for students in fields such as medical science, education, and engineering, among others.
I am particularly proud to have co-authored Engineers Making a Difference – A Teacher’s Guide, in collaboration with Imperial College London. This initiative reflects my belief in empowering young people to solve real-world problems through education and innovation.
At WIS, we are not embarking on a new journey, instead we are building upon a strong foundation. Our A-Level programme brings together over 280 years of combined teaching experience, positioning us to deliver an exceptional academic provision that is truly second to none in the UAE. A-Levels remain the gold standard of British education, offering depth and rigour that is directly comparable to the IBDP. Our students will benefit from a curriculum that fosters subject mastery and prepares them for success at top universities worldwide.
The passion and enthusiasm for learning I have witnessed in my first few days at WIS are a testament to the dedication of our staff and students. I am confident that, together, we will continue to nurture an environment where academic excellence and personal growth go hand in hand.
I look forward to working closely with you and supporting your children on their journey to success.
