Local Advisory Board
Chair of LAB
The aim of GEMS World Academy - Dubai has always been to make the Academy a centre of educational excellence. We are proud to be located in the heart of Dubai, and proud to have such a diverse community. It remains the express intent of GEMS Education and Mr Sunny Varkey to meet the needs of local students, parents and residents ensuring that our education standards are not only the highest standards, but they also serve as a role model to other schools and academies.
May I welcome the community to engage with the Academy, its CEO / Principal, and teachers. For our part the Local Advisory Board will continue to build upon the reputation and the community outreach plans of the Academy.
