SPEAK TO AN ADMISSIONS CONSULTANT
“Overall holistic approach with the kids is exceptional which empowers them and develop their personality and social skills. Something as well that we sense every day, is their thinking process to any situation they are in which allows them to take better decisions.”
Sabine Mokbel
Parent at GEMS World Academy – Abu Dhabi
“Over the last 9 years, I have been lucky to be part of this amazing school. The academics are exceptional, but even better is the character development. GAA focuses on developing the whole child way beyond books and essays. My children have pushed to reach their full potential, and have become independent, confident and global citizens.”
Maha Younes
Parent at GEMS American Academy – Abu Dhabi
“What I love about my school is that when I am there I feel as if it is my second home. That is where I have made so many good friends and where I discovered my passion for science. My teachers are so caring and have a lot of patience, and the staff is very nice. I have been at WAA since FS 2. My school is simply the best!”

American Curriculum
While there is no central American curriculum, the common themes of enquiry-based learning and student-centred planning run throughout. This is a popular choice, particularly for students wishing to enter into further education in North America.
Our private schools in Abu Dhabi are among the best in the world, covering 4 curricula:
British Curriculum
The National Curriculum for England is taught in over 150 countries around the world. It’s well respected for its academic rigour, while its associated qualifications are recognised and accepted by top universities across the globe.
IB
Curriculum
The International Baccalaureate (IB) offers a well-rounded, global education together with world-class qualifications that are recognised by the world’s top universities. The curriculum is designed to help learners grow academically,
personally, emotionally and socially.
Indian
Curriculum
There are two key versions of the Indian curriculum, both of which are becoming increasingly recognised and accepted outside India: the CBSE and the CISCE. At GEMS, we offer both pathways.
