The education landscape in Abu Dhabi

Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates has been catching up with its ever-growing education system. It has seen a rise in its education facilities in the past decade. According to reports, there are 235 private schools with some 241,112 students attending these schools. These schools provide a vast range of international curriculums like UK, US, and Indian, at the top of the list and a small but growing number of IB curriculum, Bangladeshi, Japanese, Philippine Canadian, French, and more among others. As Indian international schools are taking an upper hand, GIIS is one school that stands out to be one of the best schools in Abu Dhabi. 

Let’s further look into the reasons:

Defining what a good school is always going to be a challenge as the needs of parents and their children will certainly differ based on their personal understandings, observations, opinion, knowledge, and requirements. There is no one way to decide what schools are the best ones and which ones are not. But finding a ‘best suited’ school instead of the ultimate best school is what parents and children should aim at. A school that ticks all the required boxes of both the parent and the child is a school that is best suited for the child. GIIS is an award-winning school in the United Arab Emirates that ticks all the boxes that parents could ask for their children.
