In 1972, it was expanded to include primary education, and moved to the Sulaymaniyeh district. In 1977, the programme of the school was further expanded to include middle education (grades 7, 8 and 9). In 2000, it was relocated to its current location in Dahiet Al-Assad. The secondary education in the school was added in 2003 with the first class graduating in 2005.
