Global Indian School (formerly Indian School Ajman) is a private Indian K-12 school in Ajman, United Arab Emirates, established in 1988.[3] The school is recognized by the UAE's Ministry of Education and affiliated with the Central Board of Secondary Education in New Delhi, India.[4]
Indian School Ajman was recognized as one of the best schools in the UAE by EW Global School Rankings, 2019.[5] The school is renowned for its impressive results and a perpetual 100% pass rate in the CBSE Board Examinations.[6]
The Principal, Malathi Das, was awarded the CBSE's Teacher of the Year award in 2002.[7]
History[edit]
Indian School Ajman was established in 1988 to serve the Indian expatriate community of Ajman.[8] The school presented its first batch of students for the All India Senior School Certificate Examination in 1992.[9] Initially, the school was the only one in its neighborhood; it started off with just eight faculty members, as enrollments started small and grew slowly. Presently, it has about 150 staff members and a total enrollment of more than 1800 students.[10]
Campus[edit]
The school was initially opened in a villa.[11] In 1991, it moved to its new premises, on a land granted by the ruler of Ajman, at the heart of Ajman city. The school again moved to a bigger campus in 2020, following which it was renamed 'Global Indian School'.
