Sheena Reynolds British Institute for Learning Development

Sheena Reynolds is yelling that the current education process is failing to meet the needs of many students and our teachers are simply not aware becasue their own education has failed!

  • IN 2002 Dr Christopher Reynolds and Sheena Reynolds established a learning development programme in the UAE that was to become the British Institute for Learning Development.
  • The British Institute is unique for its philosophy of learning development as the basis for education and is the first and only schooling programme of its kind in the Middle East.
  • As a Talented Children Development Centre, the British Institute is able to develop children's 'talents' by increasing their cognitive development to increase their learning capacity and intelligence.
  • The British Institute asserts that learning is implicitly a neurological function and the capacity to learn is dependent upon neurological efficiency.
  • The British Institute's Sensational Learning Programme is based on the belief that children's learning capabilities and performance can improve where children receive personal coaching to first develop the foundation sensory systems of the mind and body.
  • The British Institute's two year study from 2006-08 of the neuro-physiological development of children showed that sensory integration therapy can increase learning capacity and intelligence.
  • The British Institute represents St Andrews College International in the UAE and offer both a school programme as well as an after-school programme for children from other schools.



St. Andrews International




  • The St Andrews College International is the school management company for the British Institute to manage the education programme.
  • The St Andrews International school is a registered international school with FES, and uses the International Primary Curriculum (IPC) from the UK.
  • The IPC has been developed by Fieldwork Education Services (FES), the education management company for the Royal Dutch Shell schools across the world. There are some 500 schools using this curriculum including 200 schools in England, and, the Emirates International School in Dubai.
  • The IPC is based on an understanding of how the brain learns, and allows us to motivate and move the children toward achieving academic skills and their personal goals. It also allows us to develop their ‘talents’ so the children can increase their ability for intellectual reasoning.
  • The great thing about the IPC is that the children think that learning is fun.
