Mr. Peter Rowlands

Principal

Message;

It is my great pleasure to introduce myself as the new Principal of The School of Knowledge. I am honoured to join this vibrant and respected learning community, and I look forward to building strong partnerships with our students, parents, and staff as we continue to nurture excellence together.

I bring with me a breadth of educational leadership experience, having spent the past eight years working in the UAE, most recently as Head of Secondary at a leading British curriculum school in Dubai. Prior to this, I held senior leadership positions at international schools in both New Zealand and the UK, where my teaching career began as a science specialist.

My academic background includes a degree in Pure Physics, a PGCE, and a Master’s in Educational Leadership. I have also completed the National Professional Qualification for Headship (NPQH) in the UK and the Aspiring Principals Programme in New Zealand—qualifications that reflect my ongoing commitment to professional growth and educational excellence.

At The School of Knowledge, I aim to foster a warm, inclusive, and challenging environment where every student is empowered to reach their full potential—academically, socially, and emotionally. Education is not just about grades, but about developing thoughtful, resilient, and responsible global citizens.

I look forward to meeting all the members of the school of knowledge community over the next few  months

Yours sincerely 

Mr. Peter Rowlands 

Principal
