For over 50 years, GEMS Education has approached its educational offering from a unique perspective.

We have always believed that a high quality education, with an international outlook, is critical in an increasingly

competitive global environment. Globalisation maybe the catch-cry of today but we have acknowledged its

impact for dec ades, and prepared our students accordingly. (See world wide university acc eptances for GEMS

students, including in the U.S under the GEMS Difference below).

Through our global network of award winning schools GEMS Education is providinga high quality holistic

education to over 100,000 students from 140 countrie s. The sheer diversity of nationalities in GEMS schools

provides students with a unique international understanding through interaction and by studying and

experiencing other cultures and belief systems. This global cross cultural experience is extended further

through a special initiative where GEMS students are linked, via video-conferences, to students in non-GEMS

schools around the globe.

GEMS provides educ ation to students in Europe, Africa, North America, Asia and the Middle East. Many GEMS

parents are aspirational, career minded professionals so the GEMS network of schools provides parents with the

opportunity to transfer their children from one GEMS school to another as their circumstances change.

GEMS has selected a team of world renowned educators to ensure it de livers global best practice in the field of

education. These include leaders who have excelled in education reform, curriculum development and teaching

and learning practices. They are unequalled in international experience and include individuals who have

established schools all over the world.

GEMS employs over 9,700 education professionals, specialists and staff from 62 countries. All GEMS teachers have

access to the GEMS Professional Development programme which is one of the largest, most comprehensive in-

house programmes of its type in the world. Over 150 senior academics are trained in international accreditation,

inspection methodologies and school self evaluation.

GEMS Education is supported by a network of eminent, international advisors which include world leaders and

experts who are game changers and influencers on the global stage. GEMS Education has strategic

partnerships with the Clinton Global Initiative, the Tony Blair Faith Foundation, the World Economic Forum and

Microsoft.

GEMS is also leading the world by becoming the first educational organisation of its type to introduce a parent

engagement strategy into all its schools. International research is clear. The biggest single reason a child does

well in their educ ation is when their parents take a real, active and c onsistent interest in what they are

learning in school at home. Research suggests that a parent who is actively and consistently engaged in their

child can add the equivalent of two to three years of extra education to that student over a school career.

When parents are engaged children get better grades, have fewer discipline problems and are more likely to be

successful in their lives.

GEMS first school was founded by educators and run by educ ators. It was a school that defined our approach to

education.It was an approach built around listening to the community and tailoring our sc hools to the

communitys needs. 50 years later the company has seen a remarkable expansion from a family run business to a

multi-national company with global reach and reputation. GEMS Education is making private education accessible

to communities all around the world.

GEMS Educations multi-faceted approach to learning prepares students for the rigors of higher learning and

equips them with the skills and versatility they require for professional employment.

We believe that a quality education is about Ad Vitam Paramus preparing for life. The GEMS approach to

learning is one which focuses on academic excellence and also on he lping students develop their character,

values, personal leadership and the spirit of enterprise necessary for them to achieve their full potential as

global citizens and leaders of the future.

Over the last three years alone, GEMS students have been accepted into 567 universities in 36 countries.

Graduating GEMS students have been accepted by some of the most prestigious universities and colleges around

the world. GEMS students have gone to 12 out of the top 15 universities in the world and 36 of the top 50

universities in the U.S. In the last ten years alone, GEMS students have won over 300 international and regional

awards for academics, sports and the arts. Furthermore, all our schools significantly exceed all national and

international benchmarks in student outcomes.

GEMS values-driven education is expressed through our four co re values which are woven into every curricula

offered by GEMS Schools and are at the core of our DNA. They are no t symbolic, we live and breathe them. We

encourage independent learning, empowering students to take on responsibility. Through our values our

students become c onfident, tolerant, resilient people of integrity, capable of both leadership and compassion.

Through our CSR initiatives, GEMS students also develop a soc ial conscience. They are taught the values and

responsibilities needed to become active members of the community, something which the modern world is

desperate for.

GEMS Core Values include:

World Citizenship - Empowering students with a global and local perspective.

Universal Values- Accepting that we are all different, recognising that we are all the same.

Leadership - Developing each students individuality and discovering their potential.

Forward Thinking- Developing skills for the future, our educational programmes help students to become

flexible thinkers who are able to question existing thinking, adapt and creatively meet the demands of the

future.

Our values are woven into every school program and are expressed through a multitude of activities which are

designed to hone individual talents, grow skills and aspirations.

Philanthropy Schools with a conscience

Through GEMS four core values GEMS schools are heavily focused on philanthropy. They are schools with a

consc ience. Each has their own charitable activities that fall under the Varkey GEMS Foundation. Students are

taught the real meaning of compassion.

For every student enrolled at a GEMS Schoo l one hundred underprivileged children will be impacted. The

Foundations aim is to support 10 million children globally. We are humbled and honored to have former U.S.
