Meet our Teachers



Lydia Clarke: Foundation Stage 1 Teacher




Hello, my name is Lydia Clarke. I have been woking in Foundation Stage 1 at Royal Dubai School since August 2009. Prior to working at RDS I resided in Northern Ireland. I have really enjoyed working in the Starfish Base and look forward to another exciting year ahead. I have seen a lot of fantastic changes in Foundation Stage at Royal Dubai School year on year and I look forward to seeing the children grow in independence and making lots of new friends along the way. 




I, together with my class support staff look forward to getting to know the children’s individual learning style’s as they begin their lifelong  Learning Journey in a safe, happy and warm environment.



Jaime Hinde: Foundation Stage 1 Teacher


Hello, my name is Jaime Hinde.  I was born & raised in Essex, England. I am married with a son in his twenties.
I have nearly twenty years experience working with children, having taught every year group from 3-11 years, also having worked in Special needs.
Prior to our move to Dubai in April 2010, we were living in Co. Durham in the North-East of England, where we were active members of our community, supporting & carrying out many events in our village, including raising money for local charities.
I have a strong passion for teaching & nurturing young children, helping them become strong, confident & capable learners.
