My blog readers ask:

What do you like about
International School MGIS?
Why should I send my child to
International School MGIS ?
What makes International School MGIS stand Out?
Why should I study at the Mahatma Gandhi International School Manila?
What makes a perfect international school for my kid?
Which is the best international school in Manila Philippines?
As a satisfied parent with
two kids studying at the Mahatma Gandhi International School (MGIS Manila), I’ll answer your
queries as honestly and concisely as I
can.
The essence of all the above questions may be summed up as:
Why should I send my child to
International School MGIS (Mahatma Gandhi International School)?
- Individualized teaching- Generally, less than 10 students per class; in rare cases, maximum of 15 pax per class
- Comfortable indoor learning environment; air conditioned, spacious, sanitized classrooms; Smartboard facilities, computer sets, ICT Room, E-Library, Physical Library etc.
- Outdoor learning- MGIS students regularly explore different places outside of the school for experiential learning as integrated in their subjects/ units of learning.
- Potentials are determined, recognized, enhanced and supported. (Here’s just one out of the many examples I can give. There’s one incoming Grade 6 student, James Ketcher, who loves singing. The teachers have always believed in his potentials. Hence, he was diligently coached and guided by MGIS Music and Theater Arts specialists. Right now, he’s ready to perform for The King and I at Resorts World Manila this September 2012).
· AT MGIS
- We let your kids think
- We don't teach religion;we teach VALUES
- We respect individual and inter-cultural differences and freedom of expression
- No Haircut Policy! ( We don't require to have your kid's head shaved--but proper grooming is maintained)
- Students’ opinions are heard
Most of all, at MGIS
MGIS listens to suggestions, addresses your
needs, and cares for your kids the way you would at home.
- The teachers who are all specialists in their respective subject area are PASSIONATE about teaching, practising empathy towards the learners
- The staff are supported towards being life-long learners where they are being sent to local and international conferences and seminars regularly; thus, assuring that MGIS 21st century educators will acquire the competence you expect in teaching your child
- International and professional quality performing arts is taught to students at all levels. Each year, before the end of the last term, MGIS comes up with a school-wide play/musical, participated by all students, faculty and staff. Last SY 2011-2012, we had Notre Dame de Paris-- French Version; the year before, we had Cats the Musical
- MGIS connects daily with parents and students through our state-of-the-art online facilities/programmes
Lastly, at international school MGIS:
WE SERVE THE COMMUNITY
WE CELEBRATE WITH THE WORLD
WE VALUE NATIONALISM
WE PROMOTE INTERNATIONALISM
WE LOVE THE EARTH

Excellent pointers Dr Cherry! All power to MGIS!
ReplyDeleteThanks. Looking forward to being part of another dynamic school year at MGIS! Go Tigers!
ReplyDeleteThanks for bloggin' about MGIS. I am a high school English teacher from San Diego, California, USA looking into venturing from local education to international education and am happy to have found MGIS, your blog and the whole wideworld of international schools out there! Much happiness! (And what a nice coincidence too...our high school mascot at my current school is THE TIGER and it seems like MGIS are TIGERS too! Grrreat!)
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to staying in touch with your blog as my school year begins here.
And if by chance, there maybe openings for 2013-2014 for upper level, secondary, high school English language arts at MGIS, would love to be in the loop about that! :)
Go MGIS and long live the spirit of Gandhiji and universal values in your school community! Lovin' it!
Sincerely,
Jon
