Summary
GESS is a not-for-profit school in Singapore that has been nurturing future generations for over 50 years. With a strong emphasis on community values such as respect, openness, and diversity, GESS provides students the freedom to grow both in and beyond the classroom.
The school caters to a wide age range, from two years old to graduation at 18 years old. GESS offers two main educational curricula: the English-speaking International Baccalaureate (IB) Programme and the German Curriculum. Starting from the academic year 2024/25, the school offers the International Baccalaureate (IB) Careers-related Programme (CP) to students in both the German and European sections, providing more tailored options to suit individual student goals.
In addition to its academic offerings, GESS launched the BeyondClassrooms programme at the end of 2021. This initiative partners with companies to provide students with internships, career counselling, industry talks, site visits, and more.
