About Tabeetha School
Tabeetha School is a truly unique school, not only because it is the only Church of Scotland school in the world, but also because this is one of the very few schools in the Holy Land where children and young people of different languages, faiths, cultures and histories are being educated together in English.
In 1863 Jane Walker-Arnott, the eldest daughter of a Glasgow University professor, founded the school to give the girls of Jaffa a measure of dignity and independence. Over the last century, the school has developed to be the incredible school it is today by consistently serving girls and boys of all faiths and nationalities and creating a positive, challenging and supportive learning environment which values individual differences and learning styles. We do so by empowering our pupils to be respectful, responsible and productive citizens in a constantly changing global society.
Tabeetha is an English speaking school whose curriculum is based on the English system of education, culminating in IGCSE, GCSE, and A level qualifications which are well accepted by universities in Israel and across the world. Tabeetha prides itself on developing an intellectual, spiritual and social awareness in all our pupils, regardless of race, ability, gender or religion. We promote Christian values and encourage faith without any coercion and every effort is made to be apolitical. Through learning, respecting and understanding our pupils can live and work together in a spirit of peace and unity and take that out into the wider community.
Where expectations are high and diversity embraced Tabeetha School is dedicated to preparing students for reaching their full potential as independent and confident thinkers who are compassionate problem solvers and leaders of tomorrow in a complex world.

I am a mum of a 10 year old girl who has been studying at Tabeetha for almost 2 years. She is in 5th grade now. Although the school claims itself to follow a British system of Education, it is far behind on all subjects from UK Schools programme. Most of the teachers have heavy Scottish accent that is not always understood by students. There is very low safety level and no actions are taken properly when the child gets hurt at school. My daughter broke her shoulder right before the lesson at 8 am. She fell off the bench. No one even noticed that. Only when my elder daughter saw her very pale and with one shoulder much lower than another she called me but it was already 11.30 and it was Friday. Thank Goodness I managed to get to the hospital before it closed. After the accident I didn鈥檛 receive any apologies for what happened on the territory of school and was denied even to ask for a compensation. 鈥淵ou must be happy she is good now鈥- was the answer from the secretary Miss Tina. There is a problem of bullying among kids and no one pays attention to it. I had to raise this issue to the principal and only then the child who bullied my child had a conversation with the staff. What is more dissatisfying is that children can get bullied from teachers. My child gets bullied by the teacher of Hebrew Miss Nilly. Any accident or minor whisper in class she gets picked on and shouted at. Recently my child and 2 other kids had a situation when they threw away a paper with the word search not in front of the eyes of the teacher but after the lesson was finished. It was regarded as a disrespect towards the teacher. She shouted at them. They had a talk with the administration. Kids said sorry but it didn鈥檛 help. The next day the next lesson of Hebrew the teacher brought treats for the students and didn鈥檛 give them to these 3 kids saying that they are BAD! Then the next lesson of Hebrew was totally devoted the whole 40 minutes to the discussion of what is respect (discussion in English so no purpose of learning Hebrew) and the teacher asked and encouraged every child to say what they think about my child鈥檚 behaviour. My child got stressed, devaluated and humiliated and it is happening again and again. I have raised this issue with the Principal and the administration and the only answer I get is that the Miss Nilly is a very respectful teacher in the Ministry of Education. Well. My child studied Hebrew in Israeli school for 8 months and could already read, write and speak when came to Tabeetha and now she forgot even the how to read. All they do at the lessons is reading texts and translating on their own. Can you learn a foreign language like that? 4 lessons a week and the result is degrading in Hebrew? I am very dissatisfied with the situation and it seems it will never be resolved due to reluctancy of the administration. 袦芯械泄 写芯褔泻械 10 谢械褌. 袨薪邪 褍褔懈褌褋褟 胁 孝邪斜懈褌械 芯泻芯谢芯 2-褏 谢械褌. 小械泄褔邪褋 芯薪邪 胁 5-屑 泻谢邪褋褋械. 啸芯褌褟 褕泻芯谢邪 蟹邪褟胁谢褟械褌 褋械斜褟 泻邪泻 斜褉懈褌邪薪褋泻邪褟 芯薪邪 芯褔械薪褜 芯褌褋褌邪械褌 锌芯 锌褉芯谐褉邪屑屑械 芯褌 褕泻芯谢 袙械谢懈泻芯斜褉懈褌邪薪懈懈 懈 薪械 谐芯褌芯胁懈褌 写械褌械泄 胁 薪邪褔邪谢械 薪懈 泻 芯写薪芯屑褍 褝泻蟹邪屑械薪褍 锌芯 斜褉懈褌邪薪褋泻芯泄 褋懈褋褌械屑械. 校褉芯胁械薪褜 斜械蟹芯锌邪褋薪芯褋褌懈 胁 褕泻芯谢械 芯褔械薪褜 薪懈蟹泻懈泄, 薪械褌 屑械写 褋械褋褌褉褘 懈 胁 褋谢褍褔邪械 械褋谢懈 褋 胁邪褕懈屑 褉械斜械薪泻芯屑 褔褌芯 褌芯 褋谢褍褔懈褌褋褟 薪懈泻邪泻懈褏 写械泄褋褌胁懈泄 薪械 锌芯褋谢械写褍械褌. 袦芯褟 写芯褔泻邪 褋谢芯屑邪谢邪 锌谢械褔芯. 校锌邪谢邪 褋 谢邪胁芯褔泻懈 (械械 褌芯谢泻薪褍谢懈) 锌褉褟屑芯 锌械褉械写 褍褉芯泻邪屑懈 胁 8 褍褌褉邪. 孝芯谢褜泻芯 胁 11:30 褟 褍蟹薪邪谢邪 芯斜 褝褌芯屑 芯褌 褋褌邪褉褕械泄 写芯褔泻懈, 泻芯褌芯褉邪褟 褍胁懈写械谢邪 斜谢械写薪芯谐芯 褉械斜械薪泻邪 褋 锌械褉械泻芯褕械薪薪褘屑 锌谢械褔芯屑.袩芯褋谢械 锌褉芯懈褋褕械褋褌胁懈褟 褟 薪械 褍褋谢褘褕邪谢邪 薪懈泻邪泻懈褏 懈蟹胁懈薪械薪懈泄 褋芯 褋褌芯褉芯薪褘 邪写屑懈薪懈褋褌褉邪褑懈懈 褕泻芯谢褘. 楔泻芯谢邪 锌褉芯懈谐薪芯褉懈褉芯胁邪谢邪 薪邪 屑芯褞 锌褉芯褋褜斜褍 芯 泻芯屑锌械薪褋邪褑懈懈. 袙 褕泻芯谢械 芯褔械薪褜 褋械褉褜械蟹薪邪褟 锌褉芯斜谢械屑邪 斜褍谢谢懈薪谐邪, 邪谐褉械褋褋懈胁薪芯谐芯 懈 褍薪懈褔懈卸懈褌械谢褜薪芯谐芯 芯褌薪芯褕械薪懈褟 泻 写褉褍谐 写褉褍谐褍 褋褉械写懈 写械褌械泄. 小邪屑芯械 芯斜懈写薪芯械, 褔褌芯 锌褉芯斜谢械屑邪 斜懈谢谢懈薪谐邪 械褋褌褜 懈 褋芯 褋褌芯褉芯薪褘 褍褔懈褌械谢械泄. 袦芯械谐芯 褉械斜械薪泻邪 褍薪懈卸邪械褌 褍褔懈褌械谢褜 锌芯 懈胁褉懈褌褍 屑懈褋褋 袧懈谢懈. 袠蟹-蟹邪 薪械芯褋褌芯褉芯卸薪芯褋褌懈 屑芯械谐芯 褉械斜械薪泻邪 懈 械褖械 2 写械胁芯褔械泻 胁褘泻懈薪褍褌褜 谢懈褋褌芯褔械泻 褋 懈谐褉芯泄 薪邪泄写懈 褋谢芯胁芯 薪邪 懈胁褉懈褌械, 芯薪懈 褋褌邪谢懈 泻芯蟹谢邪屑懈 芯褌锌褍褖械薪懈褟 胁 泻谢邪褋褋械. 袨薪邪 锌褉懈薪芯褋懈褌 褍谐芯褖械薪懈械 懈 薪械 写邪械褌 懈屑, 谐芯胁芯褉褟 - 袙褘 锌谢芯褏懈械!" 孝械锌械褉褜 褍褉芯泻懈 锌芯褋胁褟褖械薪褘 芯褋褍卸写械薪懈褞 锌芯胁械写械薪懈褟 屑芯械谐芯 褉械斜械薪泻邪 懈 胁 褝褌芯 胁芯胁谢械褔械薪 胁械褋褜 泻谢邪褋褋.
