Warm and thoughtful service! It is your first feeling when you come to such a beautiful school. My child is here to complete the fs2 registration and admission. There is no anxiety in the whole process. Thank you for your lovely staff. Sorry for not being able to remember your name, but your job is perfect. I very much look forward to my child completing a wonderful learning journey in this school, thank all the staff for their company, because your child will be proud of it in the future!

Best school ever! Creative, fun and awesome! I am a student in Year 6, my teachers are the kindest nicest people on this planet, if I could give this school 100,000,000 out of 5 I would. Truly the best school ever!! They express students creativity and make studying a lot of fun, now school is my favorite place😄! You SHOULD definitely enroll your kid to this epic school!

Im so satisfied by how theyre guiding my son. All my worries moving from Egypt here to Emarat is now gone because all of them in the school is very helpful. we totally love you guys. thank you so much!

I love GFM. the staff are very helpful, friendly and smiling all the time. the admission team was very helpful with the whole process.the management is always willing to hear the feedback from the parents and work on the required feeds.Considering this is a new school the management and infrastructure are well set for success. The school is kept in immaculate condition.From classrooms to washrooms to canteen, the building is very clean.I strongly recommend GEMS Founders AL Mizhar for any family seeking a good quality education at a relatively reasonable price.

My first visit to this school and I am impressed by the aura of this place. The way emphasis is being given to physical education is appreciated. Teaching British curriculam I would love my children to study in such good atmosphere. Truly a good school loved it.

New modern school of GEMS group. multi nationality if students and teachers... British system.. good facility but no swimming pool . Registration was perfect .. not helpful staff... registration process not very professional.. My observation for the first week. A large number of students in the classes. KG teachers are not at the expected level.. Leaderahip not flexibile and not helpful...

Simply horrible, horrible management, horrible commitment.They dont care about parents.they can call for re-enrollment , they can send SMS for re-enrollment reminder Way before second term finishes. But they cant send such notification for delay in students pic up.Surely they dont care about parents commitment, we have office we have some other commitments as well. Many parents are waiting outside the gate because they informed exam will be finished at 10:45. Now we have to call receiption and get to know the new timing which is 12:00.School full of mismanagement and greedy people. KHDA should take necessary steps to penalize such institute.You and your kid is not safe here

My son was in FS1 a year ago and i took him out after 1 term. I really had a bad experience. His teacher was very overwhelmed most of the time due to large number of students in the class, my son was hurt badly and the teacher didnt even realise. Teaching assistant changed 3 times, lack of consistency. He also learned absolutely nothing, the new school was surprised as he was very far behind in reading especially. He needed lots of extra support to get up to speed. I am so glad i moved him before distance learning started coz the new school was a million times better. The staff is SOOO RUDE!!! I was rudely told to leave the school building as school had started, i was trying to see the head of FS and they said leave now and make an appointment! I said im a working mom, i can only see her mornings, this lady said oh well - shes teaching now you should have come earlier. Just disgusting really. Also made us buy alot of stationery that was kept in class and my son very saw or used it, when i left i said i want the stationery i paid for and they said its not possible its being used for aother students!!!!! WHAT! Worst school. The affordable prices are not worth the struggle really. I felt uncomfortable leaving my son in the mornings as i felt he was not safe and looked after. Needs a total revamp. And reduce the number of students. Just want to make money at the expense of the childcare and education. If i can rate 0 i would.

Ive had a very bad experience with Founders Mizhar and I DO NOT recommend admitting your kids to their schools. They are not transparent and are more in the business of making money than creating a world class education system. They have also resorted to bribing to silence a few parents in the recent past and the Pandemic has helped open our eyes to who they really are.

Unfortunately 2 years completed in this school hoping for a better change and progress but it seems to get worse. Poor communication between the teachers and parents. A simple and easy way of communicating through a mobile application is not being used in 2020 😭. They dont care about your situation. During the distance learning as a working mother in the first line defence I couldnt follow up with my son and faced a problem in submitting the homework through Microsoft teams so I asked the teacher if someone can call me and do it with me step by step through the phone but she refused without even thinking about my simple request or about the severe stress we faced as healthcare providers during the lockdown when almost everyone was working safely from home except the first line defence employees.يا الهي كم هي تجربة مؤسفة للطلاب المسلمين في هذه المدرسة. لا استطيع ان اتخيل ان ارسل ابني الى المدرسة حتى يقوم بدراسة التربية الاسلامية ذاتيا. حيث انه هذا هو النظام المقترح. يقرا الطالبالبور بوينت بمفرده دون تفاعل حي بينه و بين المعلم و في حالة وجود اي صعوبة يمكنه سؤال الاستاذلذا لا انصح اي مهتم بتعليم ابنه التربية الاسلاميه ان يسجل ابناءه فيها .

In all honesty, the school did seem promising in the beginning, with its ‘projected’ facilities, newly qualified British teachers and an attractive price point!Post two years of my experience with the school and it’s management , I’m utterly disappointed to have seen just how unprofessional and unethical Gems management is towards handling issues.The school is overly populated with ridiculously huddled classrooms of 35 children/class, whereby the children do not get a sense of belonging and the attention they deserve!GFM by GEMS is a compromise on the quality expected and a let-down on the money invested!

This is a great multi national school. The education level is of good standard, the teachers are also very polite and treats everyone with respect.It is located in a good main road area.The head teacher understands the English curriculum.The hours for kids are at reasonable.They offer school bus too.The cost of education is moderate.But overall good school.

Not recommend this school to anyone my both sons in Year 1 and year 6 in Gems founders Al Mizhar1. 32 students in the class is it reasonable ? Imagin one lady teacher how she can concentrate on teaching year 6 subjects with 32 students.? All the time she is shouting and screaming my son heat the school after 10 days he is telling we have Hulk in our class2. Very long school day from 7.35am . to 3 PM for year 1 doing what ? Is it reasonable to keep 5 years old kid staying in the school all this long time.. Doing what

GEMS Founders in Al Mizhar is an excellent school. We find the quality of teaching, digital resources, and attentiveness to our childrens academic needs to be top-notch. Most importantly, our daughters are very happy.Mr. Nigel Cropley, Head of School, can usually be found outside early each morning and in the afternoon. He greets parents and makes himself easily accessible to everyone. I find almost the entire staff to be warm, friendly, and easy to approach.The school is kept in immaculate condition. From classrooms to washrooms to canteen, the building is very clean, especially considering the 2,000 students attending each day.I strongly recommend GEMS Founders AL Mizhar for any family seeking a good quality education at a relatively reasonable price.

Ive enrolled my daughter for the past year and in this online learning things have become clear that teachers are not caring for students and have no motivation to teach properly as they have 30 students in a class which is ridiculous and theres no following up with my daughter i have not known that she was attending school for no reason, and on top of that although i paid the school fees in this bad situation they gave me a call telling me to pay 1500 as a deposit for reserving a seat, and then they sent me a message as ive crossed the deadline that her seat will be taken and a transfer letter will be made, showing how this school does not care about quality education,but rather is just a money making business based school and does not care about your childs education.my daughter has learnt nothing this year what a shame ! Never go to this school if you want a better education.

Good school but unfortunately the LINDA the Receptionist is so rude and unprofessional. The school need to hire people who are much more polite to the parents as these are the people we meet as soon as we enter the premises.

A very bad school, if there is a zero star I would put. No safety at all for kids especially FS, bullying, not professional teachers at all. And regarding the previous post(the principle smiling for parents in morning),NOT EVERYTHING SHINE IS GOLD.

Went for an assessment and it was the worst experience. Unprofessional and unfriendly. My 3 yr old was assessed by a blond old lady ‘ head of foundation I guess’ was so rude and had a very disgusting attitude. She was litteraly looking at my kid as if she was looking at an ugly creature and she did not make any effort to get the kids attention. My child was trying to get a smile off her face but she just kept on looking at him with her ugly unpleasant manner. Seriously I wud never recommend this school to anyone coz the staff is absolutely disgusting and that woman was the most disgusting and unpleasant woman I have ever met. I mean seriously why wud u behave in such disgusting manner with a 3 yr old. Unbelievable

A very bad experience with the registration process and in general with the staff. After I paid their registration fee of 500 aed got a mail saying visit barsha gems for further process. When I went there the staff there said go to mizhar as theyve changed the process. Who will communicate this to the parents??. Next the mail said visit any time during the week. When I went to mizhar they say come on Tuesdays only for assessment. Never have I ever seen such a school with such pathetic levels of unprofessional people. not going to dump my kids in this hole!

Before this school was built, the area will rarely have traffic, after this school opened, especially this year, it made so much traffic especially that it is in a main street, the location of this school is very bad and all expats come here and make so much traffic.
