Our Promise

Our schools are amazing. They are unique places of exciting learning and discovery. And they're unlike any other schools. That's because there are a whole host of things that set us apart, that define the GEMS experience and that together make up the GEMS difference. Read on to find out what sets us apart.

Great teachers inspire great students. That's why from simple roots in a family of teachers, GEMS Education is an international company with a mission to provide quality education to all.

What’s an education if it doesn’t teach fundamental human values? Values that, in the words of GEMS Founder Sunny Varkey, “will guide students through life”, allowing them to live happy, fulfilling and meaningful lives and have a positive impact on society and the world.

Going to school is about more than just academic performance; it’s about socialising, collaborating, developing life skills, growing as a person, expanding horizons and having fun. 

We believe every child has the potential to achieve extraordinary things given the freedom to explore, express and challenge themselves.

Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) equips our students with the knowledge, skills, attitudes, and values necessary to shape a sustainable future.

Support at every step, from high school to university and the world of work beyond, our mission is to open doors and facilitate success every step of the way.

We think it’s essential that what students learn and experience in school fully prepares them for life beyond school, both in terms of careers and the future

All our schools are 100 per cent inclusive. Always. That means no one is ever turned away, no matter what their unique individual needs.

Just like you, we want the children in our care to be happy and to view and experience school as a safe space filled with discovery, opportunity and positive challenge. We firmly believe that happy students learn better, engaging in a more meaningful way, and thereby get the most out of their school experience.

All GEMS Education staff have a responsibility to ensure the welfare of our students at all times and this duty of care to students is paramount.

Through continuous research, design, and prototyping of new educational ecologies and emerging technologies, GEMS Education aims to redefine learning and schooling to meet the inter-connected societies of the future.
