GEMS International School - Al Khail has invested heavily in the International Baccalaureate (IB) because, quite simply, it believe sthe curriculum offers the best system of education available in the world today. As well as being rigorous and well respected by higher education providers, the IB is broad enough and flexible enough to meet changing needs.
Its new Principal, David Ottaviano, was formerly the President of International Baccalaureate in North Asia. He brings with him an international pedigree that includes almost 20 years as the head of private IB curriculum schools across the world.
The GEMS IB programme, spearheaded by the former Director-General of the International Baccalaureate, Jeffrey Beard, has seen substantial success across the UAE. James MacDonald, Chair of the IB Asia Pacific Regional Council and a recent addition to the team, has been charged with overseeing IB provision in GEMS schools throughout the UAE.
What's special about an IB education at GEMS International School - Al Khail? GEMS International School believes it is important that today's students are prepared for the workplaces of tomorrow. The school wants its students to excel in a spirit of discovery and independent thought. It wants them to benefit from teaching and learning practices that incorporate emerging technologies such as robotics, 3D printing and augmented reality. Its classrooms are student-centred, skills-based, and rooted in technology; it wants young learners to have every opportunity to develop their interests and passion because it believes that it is the best way to enable them to flourish.
At GEMS International School, students are far more likely to collaborate together on a project or research independently online than poring over textbooks in silence. From designing virtual cities using innovative software to exploring a new language with multimedia resources, its students are offered numerous opportunities every day to connect with the kind of learning they will need for the future.
