Guest: Gemma Thornley, Principal, The Arbor School, Dubai

The Arbor School, Dubai, is an international ecological school based on the British curriculum, offering places in Foundation Stage 1 through to Year 13 in the United Arab Emirates.
In this conversation, we explore how Arbor integrates sustainability across its British curriculum, the impact of its “living campus,” and how students are empowered to lead change locally and globally.
