Background: Amazing Minds – Inspiring Futures. The Live Event 2021.

The second in a pioneering series of live events exploring the future of education and employment for students in the UAE will be broadcast live on Zoom at 8:00pm on 24th February 2021.

Open to all parents, older students and educators, the free event is being run in association with The Royal Grammar School Guildford in Dubai, the new Tier 1 British curriculum school opening in Dubai in September 2021.

The aim is to explore the future of employment for students graduating from UAE schools and the ways that they can adjust for careers that, in many cases, simply do not exist today.

The Host – Royal Grammar School Guildford in Dubai

In September, The Royal Grammar School Guildford in Dubai will bring 500 years of academic innovation to the United Arab Emirates, with a powerful focus on developing the confidence and empowerment of RGS students in whichever path they choose for their future careers. This includes development of  “a mindset for leadership, a deep understanding of wellbeing and a strong sense of global citizenship so that they can be a positive influence on themselves, others and the wider world.”
