Principal’s Welcome Letter

Welcome to GMIS. A school which recognizes and supports the academic and social development needs of the individual, and provides a positive learning environment which is conducive to the individual’s academic and social progress. GMIS is able to accomplish this through a comprehensive and systematic approach to the way knowledge is delivered, received and assessed.

The philosophy behind our methods is rooted in creating a low stress, positive environment in which the students are free to express themselves, their opinions, their ideas, feelings, and needs. We are proud to call this a “Student Centered” environment. Our International Primary Curriculum (IPC) plays a very important role in the way our students learn and receive knowledge, the IPC has provided us with the ability and techniques to consistently provide stimulating and effective lessons which capture the students’ attention and hold their interest long after the lesson has ended. Delivering the IPC units has also proved that students can be inspired to take part in their own learning process. Our students truly enjoy this new approach of teaching themselves, which builds upon their self-confidence and value as individuals who are assured of their own abilities, skills and talents.

Cambodia is rich in tradition, customs, and culture. At GMIS we take pride in providing a positive healthy environment which embraces and nurtures these important and essential elements. These elements are fundamental in building a positive character and self-esteem while progressively developing a greater knowledge and respect of others and the world around them. It is my belief that learning institutions (schools) should be places where students can feel and experience a true desire to learn (without pressure) while building and developing a solid intellect and fine character. If this can be achieved then the school has indeed
fulfilled its obligation to produce students who will successfully survive and prosper as respectable contributing members of the global community.

Our teachers have been carefully chosen to meet the specific challenges of delivering a world class education utilizing a state of the art curriculum, modern teaching techniques, continual training, and continued professional development to ensure academic quality and most importantly to ensure your child will find his/her school experience and lessons stimulating, challenging and enjoyable.

The coming new school year will certainly bring more positive improvements that will focus further into academic achievement, curriculum development, community service, after school activities, and of course school facilities, materials and supplies.

We together are building a truly wonderful school, one that I am very proud of, and one your child will be proud and happy to attend.
