Welcome to the British Council Oman!
At the British Council, we build connections, understanding and trust between people in Oman and the UK through arts and culture, education and the English language.
The British Council was established in 1934 as the United Kingdom’s official organisation for cultural relations. We have been active in Oman since 1972 and over the years, hundreds of thousands of people, both in Oman and in the UK, have benefited from learning opportunities and intercultural experiences.
At present, we have a diverse and talented team of over 40 staff, running innovative programmes across our core areas of English, Education and Science, Arts and Sport to support Oman’s 2040 vision.
We work with trusted governmental organisations, top educational institutions and leading corporations and are continuing to create new partnerships and new learning opportunities. We believe this work plays a vital role in creating deeper, more inclusive relationships between people in our two countries.
We also see our commitment to equality, diversity and inclusion as one of the principal reasons for our continued success, and we are proud to share this experience and expertise with partners and customers throughout Oman.
This website strives to offer all users a good level of accessibility, with content available in both Arabic and English and the layout designed for those who are blind or visually impaired.

I hope that we can also create an opportunity for you. Use this site to find out more about our work and how we can help you make your own UK/Oman connections.
