Abstract

This narrative provides a reflexive account of how we have developed and delivered a MA Education programme, which runs at a British International School in Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). More precisely, we aim to share our engagement in carrying out and promoting the internationalisation of curriculum (IoC) through this Masters level study of Education. In the following, we will describe our experiences of teaching this program as so-called ‘flying faculty’ to students who are teachers in the UAE teaching at different educational levels, from Primary Education through to Further Education (FE). We are part of a small team of academic staffwho travel, periodically, to teach the course participants face to face.
