Academic Team
All our teachers participate in ongoing training programmes to ensure that the strategies, methods and resources they use reflect the standards of best practice from around the world.
The Entire GAIS staff has access to professional opportunities that include international placement, training and professional development programmes.
Our teaching staff is very well qualified and is selected for their abilities to create a motivational environment. Energetic and innovative, our team of teachers have a proven track record of motivating students to progress and work to their best levels.
As part of our teaching philosophy, we expect teachers at the school to:
- Actively engage students in their own learning
- Systematically develop students learning skills so that they become increasingly independent.
- Use assessments for learning techniques to help students to reflect on what they know and to set targets for the future.
Our on-going programme of professional development ensures that our teachers are up-to-date with the latest teaching methodologies and development in the curriculum.
