PRINCIPAL’S QUOTE

Simon Herbert, Head of School/CEO, GEMS International School – Al Khail: “I am delighted by this set of results, which once again places GEMS International School well above the world average for IB Average Point Score. Our students have worked so hard and shown extraordinary resilience. These students, and their teachers, were commended by the Council of International Schools, for their commitment and focus on learning throughout the last two years, despite the challenges of the pandemic. I would like to reiterate this and am proud that they have achieved the results and placements that they so richly deserve. Our school culture of Respect, Trust and Ambition has been modelled by these graduates and we wish them the very best in the next stage of their lives.”

Abdallah Awwad, student at GEMS International School – Al Khail, with an IBDP score of 40: “I am proud of my academic achievements at the end of DP and am grateful to the friends and teachers that enabled me during my high school years.”
 
Riad Nassri, student at GEMS International School – Al Khail, with an IBDP score of 40: “GIS has been my home for the past six years. It taught me valuable life lessons and allowed me to experience true belongingness in a welcoming community that truly cares. At GIS, I was able to make mistakes but nevertheless succeed in the end. I took pride in helping others and was constantly recognised for my commitments to the school. I was always encouraged to take risks and try new things, which built on my resilience and curiosity as a student. Without the constant support and guidance from my mentors and peers, I would not have made it to where I am now. I was not only able to grow on an academic level, but also on a personal level. With countless opportunities to explore new interests, GIS has prepared me to move on to the next step in my intellectual journey – and for that, I will always be grateful.”
