GEMS Modern Academy is reshaping education and equipping students to succeed in a constantly changing world.
Founder of T4 Education and the World’s Best School Prizes, Vikas Pota, said, “The schools shortlisted for the World’s Best School Prizes, no matter where they can be found or what they teach, all have one thing in common. They all have a strong school culture. Their leaders know how to attract and motivate exceptional educators, inspire change, and build excellent teaching and learning environments."
“I must congratulate Mamoura British Academy and GEMS Modern Academy on being named in the Top 10 shortlists for the World’s Best School Prizes 2023. Schools across the globe will learn from the story of these trailblazing UAE institutions and the culture they have cultivated,” he further added.
In September 2023, the Top 3 finalists for each of the five World's Best School Prizes will be revealed, and the winners will be declared in October. A Judging Academy made up of eminent figures from all around the world, including academia, education, NGOs, social entrepreneurs, government, civil society, and the commercial sector, will select the winner of each Prize based on strict criteria.
The five Prize winners will each get an award worth USD 50,000, for a total prize pool of USD 250,000.
