Singapore-based Global Schools Foundation (GSF) has announced a
strategic partnership with India's Vikaasa schools - a pioneer in
ICSE schools in Tamil Nadu state, which currently owns and operates
five reputed ICSE schools in Madurai.
The partnership between GSF's personalised and adaptive learning
programmes and the 50-year-strong legacy of Vikaasa schools
promises to open new avenues of expansion for students in the
new-age education driven by data analytics and artificial
intelligence.
Vikaasa schools offers education in international curricula like
Cambridge IGCSE & ICSE. Their meritorious legacy of academic
excellence has run through generations, with many alumni going on
to have illustrious careers in high positions in different fields
like finance, banking, etc. One alumnus, Mr. Anand Selvakesari, was
recently appointed the Chief Operating Officer of Citigroup
Inc.
Global Schools Foundation is reputed for offering a range of
international opportunities to its students and teachers through
collaborations and exchange programmes and University Connect
programmes that provide good higher learning opportunities to all.
Their students have received offers from Ivy League universities
such as Oxford, Cambridge, London School of Economics, Harvard and
the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), among many other leading
universities.
GSF's extensive network of international teachers will also be
available to Vikaasa teachers, who can expand their skills through
collaboration and polish their competencies through professional
development courses. In addition, GSF University - the skills and
development arm of GSF - will also offer courses to staff to help
train them in skills and develop their subject-matter
expertise.
"We believe that this GSF partnership will further bolster our
existing programmes of student exchange, great academic results,
and university counselling to nurture students into global
leaders," said Vikaasa's founder, Mr. Biju Sudhakaran. "l am
excited to see the positive impact it will have on our student
community."
Welcoming the partnership, GSF India Country Director Mr. Ashish
Tibdewal said, "We are pleased to be strategically partnering with
Vikaasa. The school's rich legacy and incredible commitment to
values-based education have produced thousands of success stories
at national and international levels. We believe GSF's innovation
capabilities will help us accelerate these successes to touch newer
heights."
With these partnerships, GSF India now operates 16 top
