Home Why GISS School By EEP

School By EEP

At GISS, being part of Egypt Education Platform (EEP) network sets us apart. As one of over 12 world-class schools across Cairo, Alexandria, Somabay, and El Gouna, we benefit from the strength and scale of Egypt’s leading education services provider while maintaining the unique identity and community spirit that define our school.

Our approach is guided by EEP’s comprehensive strategic framework, centered on four key pillars:

Innovation

We spearhead innovation in every aspect of the students’ learning, propelling our educational standards to new heights. EEP’s central innovation department meticulously ensures our students have access to the resources necessary for nurturing their innovative thinking skills, such as: 

  1. Advanced facilities and academic tools: Students have the latest learning tools at their disposal, including AR/VR, makerspace labs, STEAM labs, science labs, robotics labs, AI tools, 3D printers, and more. 
  2. Leveraging AI for personalized learning: We utilize AI-powered tools to provide tailored learning paths for students, addressing individual needs and optimizing their academic journey, in addition to offering lesson customization based on their learning levels.

Safeguarding

The physical and emotional well-being of every member of our community is our utmost priority. When individuals are within a safe and supportive environment, they are able to thrive. To ensure this, EEP’s central safeguarding team has implemented several measures, such as
  1. Stringent safeguarding policies: Formulated by EEP’s central safeguarding team, these regulations are overseen by dedicated health, safety, and environment (HSE) committees at our school. This comprehensive approach guarantees the social-emotional well-being of our employees and teams, providing them with a safe and supportive environment.
  2. Safeguarding training: We organize regular safeguarding training programs and workshops for educators, parents, and blue-collar employees. This ensures that every member of our school community is fully aware of and understands our safeguarding regulations.

Professional Development

Recognizing the pivotal role of our educators, we prioritize their professional development and growth, empowering them to become even more effective and inspiring teachers, ultimately benefiting our students and contributing to our overall success. This is achieved through:

  1. Trainings and workshops: EEP’s central professional development department regularly organizes workshops and training sessions, allowing educators to learn the most updated teaching strategies, enhance their skills, and collaborate with fellow educators across the EEP network of schools.
  2. Online courses: Our educators have access to online courses through a variety of platforms, with learning materials tailored to each educator’s strengths and areas of development.

Career Pathways

EEP provides students with the tools and support they need to make informed career decisions and thrive in today’s dynamic world, with opportunities for students to explore various fields and industries, discover their passions, and excel in both university and their future careers.
Our school’s comprehensive career and university counseling programs include:
    1. Access to online resources: Students have access to various online resources to open doors for them to explore universities, internships, and get help with college applications.
