Local Advisory Board

Introduction to the Local Advisory Board

Although GEMS Education remains the owners and corporate governors of the school, the Local Advisory Board at Jumeirah College acts as a ‘critical friend’ to the school community and supports the school leadership in securing the highest quality of education for all students. The board has a role in ensuring strong accountability for student outcomes and provision so that the school is always striving to develop and improve. The Local Advisory Board meets frequently throughout the year and is comprised of members of the Jumeirah College community and further afield, with varied backgrounds and experiences. In this respect, the board provides an invaluable external perspective on the strategic life of the school. There are many opportunities to meet with the Local Advisory Board members and an important part of their role is to ensure that the views of the College community are considered.
