Hazel Govender

School Principal

In 2016, my journey at GEMS Cambridge International School, Abu Dhabi began. After six fruitful years, I earned the position of Principal/CEO in the summer of 2022. With over three decades of experience in the field of education, and equipped with a Bachelor of Education Degree (Intermediate and Senior) and a Master's in Educational Leadership and Management from the esteemed University of Portsmouth, I continually strive to lead by example, inspiring those around me to reach their full potential and to be lifelong learners. I am also a lifelong learner and am currently pursuing my Doctorate in Education. I believe that every child is capable of achieving greatness and that each one deserves a steadfast champion in their lives, someone who will never give up on them and who will always insist on them becoming the best version of themselves.
