Forming an Alliance
GAIL was formed in 2013 by a group of school principals, who shared the same educational philosophy. Initially, they met annually to discuss new ideas in innovative learning.
One of the earliest ideas was to start an annual student conference. Student exchanges and staff research projects also began.
The initial few schools have now grown to eight. It is GAIL’s desire to remain as a close-knit group of schools from a geographically and culturally wide range of countries.
Testimonials
“What has been great has been the growing sense that we are onto something very special.
Our size, the culture and relationship developing between us has meant that we sincerely grow and change.
Our schools are better, more focused, more innovative and more attractive as a result.”
Dr John Newton
GAIL Head Alumni
“Through GAIL we are able to share ideas and challenges with fellow teachers from all across the world, which opens up a world of resources, knowledge, collaboration, exchange, fellowship and support for teachers.
It is a great benefit and comfort to know that the solution to challenges you might face is just an email or skype call away.”
Frieda de Bruyn
GAIL Champion Alumni
“Each workshop and activity gave me the opportunity to understand and respect the ideas and cultures of the other delegates and immerse myself in the different cultures. Despite our different religions, races, backgrounds, beliefs, and even accents, we are not all that different and became really close as a diverse community, tackling many different ethical dilemmas and working together to discover more about ourselves.”
