  • We wish the very best of luck to the school. This school is exceptional and very rightly rated outstanding. My son completed his primary from GEMS Royal Dubai School and passed out as Head Boy. We will miss GRDS a lot.

  • An Inspirer. An Empower. An Engager. These three characteristics are just a short sample of the many you demonstrate with all of your students who joined Funky Fingers activity (at GRDS). My sincere gratitude and authentic value for all your help and efforst provided to the children.

  • My husband and I would like to thank you all for your hard work and dedication to our child. We feel comforted by your enthusiasm, openness and professionalism, and we believe that because of this she is flourishing and more importantly is happy. We feel very lucky to have our child at GEMS and we can see that she will continue to learn, develop and reach her full potential.

    Mr. & Mrs. Ward

  • My child’s class teacher has always made time to discuss, support and resolve any concern with regards my child’s education. I found the recent meeting very information and helpful and will be implementing the advice in helping my child at home.

  • I am very pleased to see my child’s progress report and would like to give all the credit to the GEMS Royal Dubai School teachers as they are very dedicated. All teachers really work hard with the kids in their learning. Their lively personality makes kids happy and they enjoy their learning lessons with them.
