DUBAI, United Arab Emirates – 1 July 2025: GEMS Education today launched GEMS

School Management (GSM), a bold new venture designed to deliver exceptional, future-
ready schools in partnership with governments, investors, developers, school groups, and

communities worldwide.

The programme has already attracted considerable interest and is in advanced talks with

customers in eight different markets with more inquiries coming in.

Built on more than 65 years of excellence in global K-12 education, GSM offers complete end-to-

end solutions – from school design, curriculum planning and operations to staffing, training,
systems integration and safeguarding.

Whether creating new schools or transforming existing ones, GSM will deliver end-to-end

solutions. At the heart of GSM is its proprietary ASPIRE model – a ‘school-in-a-box’

framework developed by leading educators across GEMS’ global network.

ASPIRE empowers partners to quickly deploy fit-for-purpose schools – be they British,
American, International Baccalaureate (IB), Indian or local curriculum – that meet the highest

international standards while reflecting community needs.

Each model includes curriculum plans, architectural guidance, recruitment and training,

technology infrastructure, and hundreds of pre-developed operational systems and processes.

GSM is designed to take the complexity out of launching or elevating a school for its customers.

From safeguarding protocols and inclusive education practices to data systems, marketing
strategies, and timetable frameworks, GSM provides every element required to open a high-

quality school – even within a 12-month timeframe.

Partners benefit from GEMS’ ability to recruit top-tier educators, deliver staff training, and

provide digital systems that support teaching, learning, and parent engagement.

Robert Tarn CBE, Managing Director of GEMS School Management, said at the global
launch of GSM: “We’re working with partners who want more than just good schools – they want
