HIGH QUALITY LEARNING & TEACHING – Galaxy International School Uganda

HIGH QUALITY LEARNING & TEACHING

We inspire our teachers to reflect on their practice, try new approaches and better understand how to help our students learn.

We aim at helping our students to be prepared for the next level of their education and as well as life in the modern world.

High-Quality Learning and Teaching

At GISU, we educate and inspire students in a way that is unique amongst international schools in Uganda.

Our High-Quality Learning and Teaching approaches build on the benefits of our motivated teaching staff and exceptional learning environment and inspire every student to explore their full potential in all aspects of school life, regardless of their starting point.

The students are further enabled to develop social and academic confidence, as well as a fuller understanding of the world.

Hybrid Learning At GISU

The right to go to school and learn is central to each child’s development, safety and wellbeing. However, due to the Covid-19 pandemic, several learners around the world are increasingly getting deprived of this right due to closure of schools arising out of the fear of the covid-19 virus spreading. However,it has become very difficult to project when this opening and closing of physical class-rooms will end. Thus, GISU has developed a robust program as its contingency plan response to this uncertainty. We are able to teach either only online, only physical or hybrid and learners progress to the next class. There is no need to take a dead year because of fears of learners completing their learning asynchronously or school lacking online resources .Our highly quali-fied teachers have developed the capaci-ty to enhance active learning even when online.
