Global English School was established in Makkah as one of the private schools in 2016 by its founder Mr. Hassan Bakheet Almatrafi and from a modest beginning, the institution scaled heights quickly.
Looking to the growing demand for international education and the aspirations of the local and expatriate community, USA Curriculum was adopted.

Both are talented and gifted students as well as our students who require intervention should be considered in every lesson and provision made for them.
