Gems to open school in Mudon Community

Families at Mudon Community will soon be able to provide their children with high-quality education options as Dubai Properties (DP) finalised a strategic agreement with GEMS Education on Tuesday to open a new British curriculum school in the community.

The GEMS school will cover the entire educational age range from KG through to Grade 12. Located inside DP’s gated Mudon Community, on a plot of around 419,000 square metres, the school will spread over three storeys and is expected to open in September 2016.

Speaking about the announcement, Mohammed Al Habbai, chief officer for Urban Planning and Infrastructure at Dubai Properties Group, said, “DP signed this strategic agreement with GEMS Education in order to provide residents within the community with schooling options for their children. We will continue to invest in schools, medical services, and sports amenities along with other essential leisure and community facilities to enhance family life in Mudon.”

Dino Varkey, group executive director, GEMS Education, said, “Creating schools at the heart of communities is increasingly important to all of us at GEMS Education. There is growing demand for high quality international education as more and more people choose the UAE as the destination to start a family and raise their children. We look forward to welcoming the first pupils to our new GEMS British Curriculum school.”
