Shaping Futures at QES
by: BTM - Sun, 07 Sep 2025
Quality Education School (QES) celebrates more than two decades of academic excellence and affordable value-based education as Chairman Mr. Bhagwan Ladharam Parmanand Asarpota shares insights on the school’s growth, its new Saar campus and future ambitions.
QES has established itself as one of Bahrain’s most respected educational institutions, offering an exceptional blend of academic rigour and values-driven learning. Founded in 2003, guided by the inspiring vision of Baboo Kewalram and driven by the steadfast leadership of its Board of Directors, the school was built on the vision of creating an affordable, high-quality school that combined international standards with values-based learning.
As Chairman, Mr. Asarpota is deeply involved in shaping the school’s strategic direction. “My heart was drawn to education because I saw it as the most meaningful way to make a lasting difference in young lives,” he says. “Our commitment is to ensure that every child who walks through our doors leaves not only with knowledge but also with self-belief and the values of wellness, resilience, empathy and critical thinking.”
Growth Built on Trust
Since its humble beginnings with just a handful of students, QES has grown steadily and meaningfully. “Growth was never rushed, nor driven by numbers; it was built on purpose, trust and consistency,” explains Mr. Asarpota. A key driver of this growth has been the school’s balanced approach, combining strong academics with a warm, values-based environment. This formula has earned the trust of over 2,500 Bahraini and expatriate families, who continue to recommend the school to others.
The Saar Campus Milestone
A new chapter begins with the launch of QES’s state-of-the-art Saar campus, opening for the academic year 2025/26. Designed with intention at every level, the campus offers a modern learning environment that mirrors the school’s ethos. “From the outset, our aim was never to build just another school building, but to create an environment that reflects the values of Quality Education School,” says Mr. Asarpota.
The Saar campus includes bright, spacious classrooms, STEM labs, art studios, sports facilities and digital learning zones. “The STEM labs give students the chance to move beyond theory and into real exploration,” he explains. “The art studios and performance spaces encourage creativity, while the sports facilities promote teamwork, discipline and wellbeing.”
Balancing Academics and Identity
QES follows the Cambridge and Pearson Edexcel curricula alongside Bahrain’s National Curriculum, integrating Arabic, Islamic Studies, Citizenship and Bahrain History and Geography seamlessly. Mr. Asarpota believes this balance is crucial: “We ensure students gain global academic rigour alongside a strong cultural identity, equipping them to thrive in Bahrain and beyond.”
A Vision for the Future
Looking ahead, Mr. Asarpota envisions QES becoming “a beacon of affordable education in the region, where innovation meets tradition, and where global outlook and local identity are seamlessly connected.” With a focus on continuous improvement, community engagement and wider opportunities beyond the classroom, QES aims to prepare its students not just for academic success but for life itself.
“Seeing generations of families acknowledge that QES has shaped both their children’s academic success and character is profoundly rewarding,” concludes Mr. Asarpota. “This is the proud legacy we create.”
