GEMS United Indian School began as the well known Our Own English School, which opened in September, 1990. Following a restructure and the building of a new, state-of-the-art campus, we began enrolments in November 2015, for our school, re-named as GEMS United Indian School.
GEMS United Indian School carries on the GEMS Education passion for delivering internationally comparable quality Indian education, built on our belief that the culture of education is to pass on the light of skill and knowledge, helping students expand their physical and intellectual horizons through value-based and value-added educational programmes. Our motto 'Lead Kindly Light’ encapsulates this belief. And today, our restructured school is regarded as one of the premier educational institutions in Abu Dhabi.
Our school offers a Ministry of Education (MOE), UAE, approved Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) affiliated curriculum. Through this, GEMS United Indian School combines the best educational practices of today with the promises of tomorrow. We offer a premium, value-based education that instils 21st century skills. We take education beyond the primary stage of reading and writing, by taking it to the level of learning, unlearning, innovating and relearning. As a forward-thinking school and keeping the future in mind, we are moving towards a co-education learning environment. It is through collaborative learning and an academic-focused environment that our students have proudly attained outstanding achievements in their CBSE examinations.
GEMS United Indian School brings the best educational practices of today with the promise of tomorrow. We endeavour to instil 21st century skills in our students by emphasizing on our instructional plan that focuses on creativity, critical thinking, communication and collaboration that prepares students for the future.
We appreciate the fact that today’s learners use technology to multitask, therefore our learning programmes integrate technology seamlessly into the curriculum. Our objective is to train young minds to be capable of doing new things and not merely repeating what other generations have done.
We believe that capacity to learn from others is fundamental to human intelligence. Ideas are not transported ‘readymade’ into students’ minds; instead, new ideas emerge through collaboration, reasoned analysis, and interaction with physical and social worlds.
Therefore, learning at UIS is not private and it isn’t silent. Peers and parents contribute constantly to this process. Teachers, students, and parents support this process. Appropriately qualified, highly trained, and passionate professional teachers provide the platform built on learning to know, to do, to live together, and to be!
In the words of Allan Bloom, philosopher and academician: “Education is the movement from darkness to light.” And our motto is “Lead Kindly Light”.

Shaheda Fathima ,
At the beginning of the school year Shreya started out as a shy freshman. It was really hard going to school knowing no one. We feel blessed that she enrolled in your class and had you as her teacher. Because of your friendship, mentoring, she has been able to adjust more quickly to this high-achieving academic environment. Between the chaos of moving and the drama that comes with high school, she has really grown leaps and bounds both socially and academically. We give you a lot of credit for this. Your advice and belief in her as a student has really pushed her forward and given her the confidence she needed to find my own way. Thank you so much for everything. You are a fantastic mentor,
Thank you,
