Equitable School Fees
Affordable tuition provides access to The Global Excellence Curriculum for all socioeconomic backgrounds worldwide. Tuition can be paid in USD or KWD.
We can't continue limiting our children's creativity by reducing things to old ideas with one limited way of thinking. GPL encourages students to think out of the box and provides opportunities for them to create a following where they influence others' thinking. We have to change the way education is done. We have to try new and different things.
Our Global Campus
We have established a first of its kind Metaverse Interactive School where students meet virtually around the Globe for intramural games. Students convene regularly in the Metaverse cafeteria and meet with Their Academic Jegna Teacher on the Metaverse Campus. The Global Store is a part of the Globally Interactive Campus where students can purchase NFT School Letterman Jackets and other school swag in the metaverse.
The NFT wearable can be used to gain access to the school building and will gain access to other partnerships
