Pillar 4

Culture

Ensuring a well-rounded school culture

GESS remains a proudly inclusive, holistic school that celebrates all our students’ talents and abilities. Through the Limitless Learning Plan, we will professionalise and expand the subject and co-curricular programmes offered, allowing our students to discover their talents and pursue their passions to the highest levels in a large range of interests. Our students will benefit from more opportunities in the arts, languages, technology, science and sports with world-class programmes offered at different levels of abilities.

Combined with the investments planned under the Student First Campus Pillar, our students will enormously benefit from both cutting-edge facilities and the world-class instruction provided by our expert educators and coaches.

Investments in culture will lead to our students graduating with a stronger holistic profile, a deeper appreciation of their talents and abilities and a greater sense of confidence.
