Germany is in the heart of Europe This school with its 190 students from Kindergarten to IB-Diploma Program (Abitur) radiates a friendly environment, where academic competences are fostered at par with the development of personal skills and values. |
While the school is supported by the German government and follows a rigorous German curriculum, all members of the school are aware that in the 21st century national curricula have to be extended. As an IB-World School GESM realises international methods and standards in addition to the traditional in-depth approach of German curricula.
The German European School Manila became over the years an international school offering German and English as the language of instruction giving an unrestricted transition to any German school and university and to any international school at any moment of the career. With its multicultural character in an environment of more than three taught languagesat mother tongue level, the school offers a unique opportunity to prepare students to be qualified and responsible members in a global community.
Education and Values
The German European School Manila teaching style is founded on nurturing the student. Respect for all living things, tolerance for other religions and philosophies as well as democratic fundamentals are studied and learned, thus becoming part of everyday life.
Our educational style is founded on developing character. We encourage our students to become independent, open-minded, self-assured and critical thinkers.
Our academic style is based on scientific fact. We give our students the skills, methods and knowledge to help them in their roles as probing thinkers to understand and solve problems.
We encourage our students to develop a life-long love of learning and a willingness to be responsible for themselves and their environment.
A highly motivated team of teachers and much attention paid to individual students’ needs contribute to the positive learning experience for which the German European School Manila is known.
The international campus is spacious and incorporates a high level of security. Sport facilities, laboratories and the teachers’ lounge are shared with the French School. Together we form the European International School, an island of European and international multiculturalism right in the heart of Manila.
We would be very happy to answer any specific questions you might have about our school. We invite you to come and enjoy the full experience of German European School Manila: a centre of excellence in academics, sports, music, and community service.
