German International Schools nurture tomorrow’s workforce with career-ready skills

Andreas Rothfritz (AR): German International Schools are part of a system of only 141 schools certified through the German federal government. This grants students who attend German International Schools access to certified diplomas which are seamlessly recognised in case of a family transitioning back to Germany, Austria or Switzerland. The German Schools in the UAE are even certified as ‘Excellent German Schools Abroad’. Most teachers are recruited directly from Germany, enabling a teaching standard that reflects Germany’s curriculum. This teaching standard highlights the excellent performance of our students. More than the average of our students complete their Abitur (German High school diploma, eligible for University entry-level) and study in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, or worldwide in various fields such as medicine, engineering, computer sciences, and education. German Curriculum graduates get a broad and strong basis of knowledge covering all STEM subjects, social, and arts subjects; build up a high level of intercultural competence and tolerance; have a high level of foreign language competence (English, French, and Arabic); can act independently; develop creative ideas; think critically; and possess outstanding study skills. Michael Lummel (ML): Well-being is key at the German International School Dubai (DISD). Our goal is to strive successfully for happiness.
