School Philosophy, Culture and Ethos

GYSS aspires to build a community of motivated and committed individuals. It adopts a people-centric approach to bring out the best in students and develop them into Leaders, Thinkers and Advocators. Integral to achieving this objective is the school's 'People First' culture which embraces constructive professional engagement to empower staff, build capacity and create a vibrant, caring and dynamic learning environment. Our students are encouraged to Challenge Convention and Champion their Passion through student-initiated programmes that promote self-directed learning and discovery. Students' holistic development is reinforced by the school values of 5Gs - Gracious, Giving, Grateful, Grounded and Green - which serve to imbue in our students a sense of purpose as they take ownership of their learning and responsibility for their growth.
