School Newsletter The New Filipino Private School is the very first Filipino school in the United Arab
Emirates to be given the license to operate using the Filipino Curriculum by the
Our Facilities
Department of Education, Manila, Philippines and the Ministry of Education, Sharjah,
Directions & Maps United Arab Emirates. It was founded by three dynamic, self-motivated ladies,
namely Miss Aghsan Musa who was the Vice-President and member of the Board of
Why NFPS?
Directors, Mrs. Myrtle Fernandez who was in-charge of financial matters, and Mrs.
Zenaida Dizon who was the very first NFPS principal. They were assisted by two
well-rounded educators, Mrs. Luzviminda P. Corpuz, our Subject Coordinator then,
and Mrs. Lolita Irong, our Academic Chairman, together with Mrs. Anna Castillo who
was the school Registrar then. Its first year of operation was successfully launched
on 14 September 1996. It was initially manned by 21 well-experienced and highly
qualified teachers meticulously screened from various schools in Manila both private
and public. The NFPS used to be housed in villas in Ramla, but after the ruling of
the Ministry of Education to vacate villas and either build or move to a school
building, it has, since then, been operating in a government school building. It is
situated in Dasman – just a few hundred meters away from Qur’an round about,
making it accessible to all Filipino communities especially those who reside in
Sharjah. It is probably the reason why its enrolment keeps soaring every year.

Its academic operation is systematically planned day-after-day to make sure that

everything is in the right track. Teachers from pre-school to high school are closely
monitored by Grade Level and Subject Coordinators checking their classroom
performance and academic competence. Directly under the principal is her
assistant who helps her oversee all activities, academic and non-academic alike.
The principal in the person of Mrs. Luzviminda P. Corpuz sees to it that all pre-
planned activities are systematically carried out.

The NFPS takes the pride in being known as one of the Filipino schools producing
graduates who excel in their chosen field of endeavors in the most prestigious
colleges and universities in Canada, United Kingdom, United States and back home
– University of Santo Tomas, University of the Philippines, De La Salle University,
just to name a few. Its graduates who are now professionals earned their degrees
with highest honors in these universities.

The NFPS believes that education does not only mean equipping students with
academic competence, but it also means keeping them physically fit and religiously
responsive. This means giving them well-planned, well-balanced activities that
would lead to their becoming well-formed, well-adjusted individuals. Members of
The NFPS Varsity Teams are given regular trainings as early as the second quarter of
the academic year. This is to prepare them for our yearly inter-school athletic
competitions. Indeed, The New Filipino Private School is a haven for those who seek
an education that is truly well-rounded and truly Filipino.
