Our first GCSE cohort, Grade 9 (Year 10) as students will prepare for the International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) course, the Advanced Subsidiary (AS) and A Level Examinations. We aim to provide students with a thorough preparation to face the modern world. The school has high expectations for every child, as they are encouraged to take pride in personal achievement through hard work.

We cater to the wide range of abilities and talents of all the students by providing them opportunities to develop their potential, enabling them to make a positive contribution to society.

GCS is built on the success and legacy of the GEMS Cambridge Schools in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, which span over more than three decades. Not only do we implement the best practice from our family of schools, but we also create a unique school with its own identity and strengths. We create a learning environment that enhances academic achievements by instilling values, which guide the daily lives of our students. Our record of success not only rests on the efforts of students, but also on the dedication of the staff. A great deal of emphasis is placed on staff training and development and on maintaining a thoroughly up-to- date study programme for all students.

Mission: GEMS Cambridge International Private School, enables students to realise their full potential in a multicultural, caring and positive learning environment. Through our broad and balanced curriculum, we will endeavour to develop responsible, globally conscious citizens. We will support all our students to develop their skills as lifelong learners with a strong sense of self-worth.

We understand that helping develop global citizens who can achieve what they dare to dream requires strong and effective partnerships with parents. We recognise that education and learning are ongoing-shared responsibilities between home and school, and we provide a full programme of parental consultation evenings, coffee mornings and parental engagement workshops.

Together we can provide the best support for children throughout all stages of their education.

Vision: Our vision is to support high quality education for the diverse and wider community of Sharjah by offering an affordable GEMS school with an international environment delivering the National Curriculum for England.

At the GEMS Cambridge International Private School, we foster an environment of respect and trust and we treat every child as an individual personalising the approach to their learning. Our aim is to build confidence and develop initiative in our students within a safe, happy and inclusive school. The GEMS core values of Leading through Innovation, Pursuing Excellence, Growing by Learning and Global Citizenship lie at the heart of the GEMS Cambridge International Private School.

We are delighted to be in our third year of opening of a new school in the heart of the “Cultural Capital of the Arab World.” It is an ideal opportunity for us to build on the success and legacy of the GEMS Cambridge Schools in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, which span over more than three decades. Not only do we implement the best practice from our family of schools, but we also create a unique school with its own identity and strengths. We create a learning environment that enhances academic achievements by instilling values, which guide the daily lives of our students.

GCS prides itself as a values-driven community where children feel happy and safe. We place a strong focus on design thinking and problem solving in whatever we do within and outside of the classroom. Students have daily opportunities to explore innovative solutions to complex challenges. Through appreciative inquiry, we acknowledge the good in everyone we meet and everything we see.

The size and structure of our school allows each student to be treated as a unique individual. We carefully recruit staff who demonstrate a genuine passion and imagination for learning, who can inspire, engage and challenge each student. The staff at GCS take their role as mentors very seriously. They seek to guide and mentor students as they begin to take responsibility for their own decisions, determine their own attitudes and form their own opinions as to what life is all about. Support is provided to students to achieve academically and grow physically, socially and spiritually in a happy, secure environment.

School should be a place where each student gains memories that will be cherished forever, friendships that will last a lifetime and knowledge and experiences that will prepare them for their adventurous life ahead. It should also be a place, that when the time comes for students to leave school, they are happy to be moving on, but also sad as they are leaving a place they love.

We are deeply grateful to Ms. Ujwala for her exceptional support and guidance when we enrolled our daughter this year, we were initially quite hesitant, to move her from a school in Dubai. However, Ms. Ujwala's assistance was invaluable; she provided the clarity and reassurance we needed to make the right decision.The staff and management team have also been incredibly approachable and helpful. We're so pleased with our experience that we look forward to enrolling our son at the same school soon.

The staff right from reception till the registration are very friendly and helpful. They helped us to each and every step of the process from assessment till the admission. I appreciate their patience and professionalism to manage all our queries as we were moving from Abu Dhabi to Sharjah. Special thanks to Ms Ujwala handholding us and guided clearly for our school transfer. I thank you all the support they provided us during this transition. Keep up good work.

I currently have three daughters enrolled in the school, two of them recently joined during the second term. The main reason for transferring them from their previous school was the creation of a positive learning environment that promotes good mental health and a readiness for learning. I am grateful for the comprehensive support offered to students in all aspects of their lives, preparing them not only academically but also instilling a global mindset to face real-life challenges.

Our children have been with GCS from its first year (2019) and we have witnessed the growth in both academically and personally. We are proud to be a part of GCS, who gives immense exposure to children and encourages them to look further and aim bigger. Thank you for constantly preparing them for today and for future which cannot happen without such wonderful, friendly teachers who are family to the kids and parents.

My son LOVE this school – from the teachers the students to the challenging curriculum. GCS integrates compassion into their teaching standards, emphasizes the importance of values, and builds leaders through each of their classes and lessons. Teachers are passionate about seeing their students succeed. They are so great about sharing moments of pride they see within your child – their good behaviors and achievements; and they know the importance of getting the parents involved should an issue arise, and do it in a very respectful, approachable manner. GCS brings out the best in every child by tapping into their individual strengths, while creating an environment of kindness, responsibility, and leadership. Our family is so grateful for our GCS family. Great team – great school
