The Royal Commission for Riyadh City (RCRC) announced its partnership with Aldenham Education Group (Aldenham) to bring one of the oldest British schools to Riyadh.

Opening in September 2022, Aldenham is the third school to be established in Riyadh under the RCRC’s International Schools Attraction Programme. It will initially launch a preparatory school (ages 3-11), to be soon followed by the senior school (ages 11-18).

Aldenham is one of the oldest schools in the world, operating from the same site at Hertfordshire near London since 1597.
