GEMS Education will partner with Infinity Developments to open a premier international school in Zanzibar’s Infinity Hills community by 2027.

STONE TOWN: GEMS School Management (GSM), part of the globally renowned GEMS Education group, has announced a strategic collaboration with Infinity Developments to explore the establishment of a world-class international school in Zanzibar by 2027.

The proposed school will be located within the Infinity Hills community — a sustainable, master-planned development in Stone Town that integrates green living with modern amenities. The school will uphold the GEMS Education hallmark of academic excellence, innovation, and student-centric care, offering a future-ready curriculum with strong emphasis on digital learning, STEM, and leadership development.

This initiative is aligned with GEMS Education’s vision, led by its founder Mr. Sunny Varkey, to make exceptional, quality education accessible to students worldwide. The new GEMS Zanzibar school aims to serve both local and expatriate families by bringing international best practices to East Africa’s rapidly evolving education landscape.

“Our partnership with Infinity Developments represents a meaningful step towards fulfilling our mission of nurturing every child’s potential through high-quality, values-based education,” said a GEMS Education spokesperson.

The school will also serve as a central hub for the Infinity Hills development, reinforcing the role of education in shaping sustainable, inclusive communities. With construction expected to begin in the coming years, the new institution is poised to become one of the premier educational destinations in Zanzibar.
